Red Bull has already signed Max Verstappen for 2025, and Sergio Perez is doing well this season, so he might keep his seat for next year too.
Perez said he expects to know about his future soon because things are changing fast. Red Bull’s team boss, Horner, said they’re not close to deciding yet, even though people are talking a lot about next year’s drivers.
Horner said they’re happy with Verstappen and Perez but don’t need to decide on their lineup until later. Perez had a tough time in 2023, so Horner wants to make sure he keeps up his good performance before making a decision.
Horner said Perez would like to know his future quickly, but the team isn’t in a hurry. They’re happy with their current drivers but want to see if Perez can keep performing well.
Horner mentioned Daniel Ricciardo as a possible replacement for Perez but said Ricciardo needs to show better performance first. Liam Lawson, Red Bull’s reserve driver, is eager to race, but the team’s focus is on their current drivers.
Horner said Ricciardo has the chance to prove himself in the upcoming races. Lawson is waiting for his opportunity, but there’s no set time for him to race.
Red Bull is satisfied with their drivers for now and will see how things develop before making any changes.
