Rumours about Red Bull chan🐷ging two of their drivers in 2025 have been welcomed.

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

Red Bull are considering whether to stick with the under-performing 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez next season.

Red Bull to ditch Sergio Perez?

If Red Bull opt to get rid of Perez, they have two strꦗong optio🅘ns at their sister RB team.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson are both batꦰtling away for the chance.

Meki🐓es told Sky Sports: “As a team, that’s how we think. There is noise outside of ꦇthe team.

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

“So when we ജhear rumours about them going el🌟sewhere, it is good news.”

Red Bull have already demo꧃nstrated their notorious ruthlessness with driver changes by ditching Da♋niel Ricciardo from the RB team mid-season.

That change 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 p🍰romoted to replace Perez.

Franco Colapinto is an obvious 𓂃c💖hoice to fill that seat.

“Colapinto? It’🐠s natural, after the fantastic [start] he has had, thatꦕ many teams will think about him,” admitted Mekies.

“We are a t𝔍eam who focus on driver development. Our focus is on that.

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

Colapinto replaced the under-performing Logan Sargeant at Williams ꦬmid-way through this campaign and 🍰has caught the eye.

The driver from Argentin🌊a has nowhere to go next season, beca𒈔use Williams had already committed hefty deals to pair Alex Albon with Carlos Sainz.

Williams boss James Vowles is adamant that Colapinto deserves a full-time drive next yea🔯r somewhere on the F1 grid.

Racing Bulls are🌃 the only team with a possible v𝐆acancy.

Colapi♋nto has loosely been linked to Alpine too, despite them namin🔴g Jack Doohan for his rookie season in 2025.
