Red Bull's new dilemmas over 2026 F1 driver decisions
Red Bull has delayed making a decision on its 2026 F1 driver line-ups as it works out what to do and how to do it.
Replacing Yuki Tsunoda with Isack Hadjar has seemed Red Bull's most likely play for quite a while, so all expectations are that Max Verstappen will go into 2026 with yet another new team-mate.
Red Bull motorsport advisor Helmut Marko previously indicated that a decision would be made after the Mexican GP weekend, allowing Red Bull to then rapidly confirm its 2026 driver plans between Mexico and Brazil. But that's no longer the case.
