Horner is 1 of 2 long standing team principles (spelling) that are still going, and have done well for their team. getting rid of him would and them pushing their side (austrian faction) more may result in a alpine situation. revolving door of staff and going backwards.

It’s easy to look at Hamilton’s move to Merc and think it could easily happen again with Max, but if you look historically, there has been way more bad moves like this than good ones. From the top off my head i can think of Ricciardo to Mclaren or some of Alonso’s moves over the years. But, everyone starts fresh in 2026, could be very interesting if the move happens.

@DoomcakeOfEllinia

3 ай бұрын

Nah man, Antonelli is such a big prospect Merc would be crazy to let him go. I think that if this were to happen, this would be the end for Russel in the near future. They'd probably send Antonelli to Williams to gain some experience like they did with Russel. And when he's grown enough to their liking, Russel is yeeted out and Kimi joins Merc next to Max. That is, if Max still wants to race then. Altho, Max did say that it'd be hard to justify leaving F1 if he was in a dominant car.

I agree with everything said in this video actually. Of course it's unlikely, but I think it's more possible than some people may think. Another side to it: Max always says that he's not too bothered about breaking records and that he'll stay in F1 as long as he enjoys it - and tbh I believe him. He seems to be loving his time at Red Bull now, but if he gets bored of the team I don't think it's out of the question for him to jump ship to a currently slower team that has clear potential to be better in the new regs (and has shown prescedence for doing so in the past). Also, I think of Max as a driver who wants to do just that - drive (polar opposite to Lewis who I also like). While it's impossible to completely avoid team politics in F1, if it gets too crazy with the Horner situation, Max could join Merc purely to get away from all the drama and focus on his driving.

Voyager is my favorite.

I'm waiting to see if Ford reacts to all the drama as well

Ford is and has always been a joke

F1 game career mode playing out irl. 😂 I would have NEVER thought of Hamilton going to ferrari, or Verstappen going to Merc.

If Max were to leave who do you think would get the Red Bull seat? Christian obviously has a thing for Ricciardo and it's hard to see them putting Yuki in the seat given he's basically only there because of Honda. It's also hard seeing them putting Yuki in that seat after the nonsense he pulled after the race in Bahrain. Although even as a fan of Daniel I don't think he really deserves the Red Bull spot

in hindsight this seems like a muppet of a driver move but I guess there are factors other than performance that could be in play

⁠​⁠the reality is it’s a personal vendetta by Jos…. He wants Horner fired. He is behind i all, the complaint to RB, the leaks to Telegraaf AND the emails with the messages to all press and FIA and F1? And why does Jos hate Horner so much? Cos Jos is dating Horners former PA… and Horner advised her to not start relationships with Jos…. Jos and that Fiona woman together made the complaint to RB, then Jos kept leaking info to Telegraaf, even orchestrated the emails to all press and FIA, F1 during FP2. Its all JOS. Only aim is to damage Horner and get him fired. He doesn’t care that it’s damaging Max’ season, team, RBR, RB, sponsors, even Fiona is dragged through the mud with it… it’s all Jos. And still Jos is talking to press to damage Horner and force RB to fire him. Jos even went to Toto to ask if there’s a seat available so he can have leverage to force RB to fire Horner “or else Max leaves to Merc”…. And all this WITHOUT MAX’ APPROVAL. Jos must be blocked by Max, RBR and RB before he does even more damage. The whole paddock knows this.

Not the same scenario, but Vettel visited Maranello and signed a pre-contract with Luca di Montezemolo days after winning in Brazil in 2012. If Verstappen were to leave Red Bull for a full works team in anticipation of 2026, it would make total sense. Remember how much Red Bull was plagued by Renault from 2014 to 2018 with the best aero and chassis (by their wins in non-power sensitive tracks)

Nah if he wins this season and looks like he will, he aint going anywhere.

if max were to leave RBR at the end of this season, RBR could promote Ricciardo to RBR and put Lawson to RB or replace Checo with Sainz + the latter.

This is basically a Red Bull civil war, and it's certainly going to be fun to watch

The Gran Turismo music ☺️

this does make more sense the longer you think about it. although max has been talking about trying out different type of racing, for example le mans. i wonder if he would rather give merc a go than leave formula 1

Hear me out... max to mercedes, Alonso to Red bull

whats with the weird noises when you put an image on screen

They don't even mention Verstappen when talking about challenging Red Bull anymore, only Perez. Because they know with Verstappen behind the wheel they're not catching him. Wolff was heaping on the praise all weekend too. During an interview, Toto Wolff said: “I think Max is not in a different league, but is in a different galaxy. The performance is extraordinary.” Asked if he felt that pointed to Red Bull winning all the races, Wolff said: “Unfortunately yes. You just need to just acknowledge his performance levels are really very strong.”

It's also worth noting how old arian newey is, how long is he going to stay in f1 for?

The one person who is laughing and enjoying the shit out of this driver market drama is Fernando alonso 😂

One of your best videos 😌 if this happens I think this video could be one of your goat's

You're right. It's not crazy. And I low-key really hoping for it.

Isn't that GTA SA's menu sound you are using?

Andretti, this is your call. Adrian Newey, and Horner in Cadillac 🗿

What?! (How unexpected to hear this)

i done a video saying this the day the redbull story broke! people were like nooo! spot on mate
