Next season, the Red Bull Racing line-up will not change – Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez will continue to compete for the team from Milton Keynes. Team leader Christian Horner said on British Sky Sports News that he is considering many drivers, including Lando Norris, as a partner for Verstappen in 2025.
Christian Horner: “Lando is a great driver with great talent, so it is only natural that he is one of the drivers everyone is watching closely. However, we look not only at him, but also at many others. Nowadays there is a generation of drivers with great talents in Formula 1.
Being Max’s partner isn’t easy. Some riders may be ready for this challenge, some may not. Of course, we are considering the drivers who compete for us, but at the same time we are monitoring the situation on the driver market. I think you understand how interesting the opportunity to pilot a Red Bull car is for many.
Now Max has such a high level of confidence in his abilities, plus his talent, that it is difficult to imagine that anyone can beat him behind the wheel of the same car. However, there are other talented drivers in Formula 1, so we want the best possible pairing of drivers to drive for us. Ideally it would be one of our drivers, but if we don’t think we have one, we’ll look into who is available from other teams.”
