Red Bull have been hit by a major exit following Daniel Ricciardo ’s departure from Formula 1 last season. Alpine have announced an update over Jack Doohan’s future, following speculation that he could be replaced midway through the 2025 Formula 1 season.

A new claim from Red Bull insider suggests that even with an underperforming car, Max Verstappen’s unmatched skills will keep him ahead in the championship battle against Lewis Hamilton.

Max Verstappen has been issued a warning over his performance expectations with Red Bull for the 2025 Formula 1 season. An official Red Bull release has seen team principal Christian Horner replace one of his world champions behind the wheel.
