168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez’s Red Bull career could eventually be saved by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen - but only if their star driver quits the team.

The hypothesis about the 2025 F1 driver line-up was mooted on the  podcast.

Perez is fighting꧋ for his future at F1’s top team with his contract expiring and a number of ಌrivals eyeing his dominant car.

“Put Max🃏 in the equation,” L’Equipe journalist Fred Ferret suggested before the Australian Grand Prix.

“He may have to leave, at one point.

“If he leaves Red Bull, things are very dif♏ferent.

“Then, I would say, that Checo's seat is saved be⛄cause you need someone with 🦩the legacy of driving the old cars.

“This is som🅠ething you need in your min🦂d for 2025 and later.”

But Natalie Pinkham replied: “I w🧸ould be absolutely amazed if Max left for 2025. I could see potentially '26, with the engine change.

“Perhaps he knows something that we d🤪on't about how far advanced Red Bull area, in that area.

“It would be staggering to walk away from this rocket ꦡship of a car in '25!”

Ferret asked: “Did you bet at Chrisဣtmas that Lewis Hamilton would go to Ferrari?”

Pinkham answered: “But we're talk💦ing about walking away from a totally dominant car!♌ We're not talking about walking away from a Mercedes.

“Say he's got this year sewn up, his four🌸th [title]. He's going to walk a𝓰way from a fifth?

“It would be ridiculous to.”

But Ferret s🀅aid: “I am not that sure. Maybe Max, because 🦂of Jos and Helmut and everything, will have to leave.

“I will say that it's a possibility…”

As it stands, the race is for the s♒econd Red Bull se🍌at alongside Verstappen in 2025.

Carlo♎s Sainz, Fernando Alonso, Aܫlex Albon and Daniel Ricciardo are among the drivers to have been linked with the coveted position at various points.

“Perez is doing eve✤rything asked of him🌱,” Pinkham insisted.

“He’s bringing it home cleanl𝕴y in second [in the f﷽irst two grands prix].

“You can’t fault him. What else is he supposed to d♑o?

“It feels like there has be🍸en a shift. Maybe it's t🍰oo soon to tell. But it feels like there has been a shift in his mind-set as to how he approaches this season.

“Think back ꦬto last year. Getting that win in Saudi last year gave him the shot in the arm that he needed thaꦦt [a title challenge] was possible.

“We know he is a street circuit specialist. “Suddenly🥃 we thought, hang on, game on here! Only to be put back in his box by Max.

“If he comes back into it, this year, with a diff🧸erent mentality he may well drive better. “He may relax. Take the pressure off.

“He is tenacious, we know that. But sometimes♓ he makes mistakes when the pressure is on.

“Right now, he is doing enough.”
