[@amirnicolai3830]

@@Firemarioflower You are delusional if you think Albon comes even close to Hulkenberg in skill

[@CraigoZ21]

@@Firemarioflower Well, Hulkenberg doesnt have to overtake, because he is one of the finest qualifyers on the grid. Of course Albon needs good overtaking abilities, because he always qualifies between P8 and P12. Gasly had 12 Races for Red Bull. Albon has had 15 now. And they both show exactly the same gap to Verstappen. And the only Podium Chances for Albon were because of Safety Cars and never because of his race performance. The only difference is the mindset. Alex is more willing to learn and find the mistakes on himself rather than the car. Gasly was maybe not humble enough and got caught out by his own expectations. Otherwise the only reason I imagine why they didnt throw Albon out yet is because he is Red Bulls last Driver at the moment. They fucked up giving Ricciardo too much of No 2 Driver feeling, so their last really competitive driver left them. Plus 51% of Red Bull is owned by a thai company, so they like Albon in the cockpit. I personally don't see Albon improve anymore, but I maybe wrong, lets wait for the upcoming triple header. If he still doesnt perform there, Red Bull honestly should think about Vettel.

@@TheDazzler420 why bother on a comment that's 4 years old lmao. During that time renault was never a team but an engine supplier for redbull an toro rosso. Lotus was there but ran with Mercedes units. Redbull during that time wasnt that bad but was pretty much one of the fastest midfield cars with Williams as competition. How ever they didnt stand a chance on challenging ferrari an mercedes for the title. During that time kvyat wasnt that bad on his debut season with redbull an entered decent results to get him ahead ricciardo in the standings which is a shocker honestly. But for 2016 the decision was not political, it was what Horner an marko saw. First quarter of the 2016 season saw kyvat starting to make mistakes despite his podium he got in china, horner an marko did want to rewrite history by finding the youngest champion an noticed verstappens 2015 progress when he finished in P4 2x an a P4 in russia 2016 that's the progress of a driver in need of a quick car. That's when horner realised that max could be the next big thing an he was right, max was extremely talented, an much better then kvyat, he was fast but his defense back in 2016 was crazy dangerous an was known for being the Kmag before the Kmag.

I really let myself believe 5 years ago that the swap was wrong

I wonder what ever happened to that Max Verstappen guy

[@hddhdhxhxb1793]

Does that Red Bull seat come with Kelly piquet included?

[@andyvanderlinden765]

If you have a bad day. Just read f1 fans comments. That will lift your day.

[@nicholaschappell2739]

This switch was justified if you look 5 years on. Max has won many races and the championship, kvyat wouldn’t of done this!

Oh man, Marko saying 'don't do anything stupid' must've been a tough one for him.

Man, imagine being scared of losing a driver to other teams that you put him in a seat before he touched an f2 seat... then transfer him into a redbull to not trigger his exit clause in the end of 2016.. man, they've seen his talent before the world even knows his name. What happened in norrisring in nurburg must have been magical.

[@antnam4406]

Stole his seat, stole his girfriend. Brutal Legend!

Hé is the best…..better than al the rest!!! En girlfriend whatever, she had a good life with Max….

[@anf1fan826]

Seriously he took gf also? I believe almost

[@sierralvx]

Watching this now after Nyck was ousted out for Ricciardo is oppurtune. Red Bull will always be cutthroat as long as Marko's in charge. I'm happy to see Max and Daniel get to be where they deserve, but some drivers need more time to prove their worth. Glad to see other teams have more patience or are at least more concerned with their driver's mentality.
