Rumours about Red Bull changing two of their driverꦦs i🌟n 2025 have been welcomed.

Laurent Mekies, team principal of sister team RB, is pleased that his two drivers are in the mix for a promotion into the ma🍒in Red Bull team.

Red Bull are considering whether to stick with the under-performing 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez next season.

Red Bull to ditch Sergio Perez?

If Red Bull opt to g𒆙et rid of Perez, they have two strong o꧟ptions at their sister RB team.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Yuki Tsunoda and 🐎Liam Lawson are both battling away for the chance.

Mekies told S♑ky Sports: “As a team, that’s how we think. There is noise outside of the team.

“We hope that our driv🐠ers develop enough to be attractive for Red Bull Racing. That’s what we are trying to achieve.

“So when𒐪 we hear rumours about them going elsewhere, it♕ is good news.”

Red Bull have already demonstrateꦉd their notorious ruthlessness with driver changes by ditching Daniel Ricciardo from the RB team mid-season.

That ch🏅ange enabled Lawson to come back into the fray, and he could immediately be promoted into a Red Bull alongside Max Verstappen in 2025.

Franco Colapinto to Racing Bulls?

RB - who will rebrand and be called Racing Bulls in 2025 - would have a🐟 vacant seat if either Lawson or Tsunoda is promoted to replace Perez.

Franco Colapinto is an o🥃bvious choice to fill that seat.

“Colapinto? It’s natural, after t♓he fantastic [start] he has had, that many teams will think about him,” admitted Mekies.

“We are a teaꦍm who focus on driver development. Our fo꧃cus is on that.

“If and when there is an oppor🎃tunity for our drivers to go to a bigger team, it is good news.”

Colapinto replaced the unde👍r-performing Logan Sargeant at Williams mid-way through this c♊ampaign and has caught the eye.

The driver from Argentina has nowhere to go next season, because Williams had already committed hefty deals to pair Alex Albo⛦n with C♎arlos Sainz.

Racing Bulls are the on☂ly team wit🅰h a possible vacancy.

Colapinto has lꦦoosely been linked t🌳o Alpine too, despite them naming Jack Doohan for his rookie season in 2025.
