Isack Hadjar next-in-line for Red Bull?

This makes Hadjar a prime candidate for Red Bull should it want to give another driver a chance to race alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen at its primary team.

There is already some uncertainty about Tsunoda’s mid-term future with the team, with question marks over whether t🤡he Japanese driver will remain a part of the Red Bull family following its impending split with Honda.

When sugg💦ested that he could ཧbe next in line at the Milton Keynes squad, Hadjar told Sky: “To be honest, I'm really enjoying where I'm at the moment.

“I wo🙈uld༒ never refuse a call, that's for sure. But, yeah, that’s [on] him [Red Bull management to decide]. Honestly, I'm just having fun at the moment.”

Lawson’s return to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Racing Bulls has created an interesting dynamic for the Faenza teaℱm.

While he did compete in the last six races of 2024 with the sqꦏuad then known as RB, he is having to reacquaint with the team after starting the new season with Red Bull.

Hadjar, meanwhile, completed his entire pre-season preparation with Racing Bulls and𝓡 has now scored four of the team’s seven points so far in 2025.

Asked who is now the team leader at Red Bull’s secondary outfit, Hadjar said: “I still think Liam is more experienced. Even within the team, he was already driving for them in '23, so he's bringing a bit more 🃏experience than I am.

“But obviously, I started the year hওere so let's call it equal. But we're definitely working really, really well together.”
