The Red Bull, at the gates of December, it is the most coveted destination of Formula 1 drivers. Everyone wants it but still no one has taken it. The favorite seems to be Nico Hülkenberg with a small margin on Sergio Perez, who called a press conference for Monday. It should talk about the current season and not the future: a potential clue that would suggest a small advantage for the German in the race towards Milton Keynes. Race from which Alex is not excluded Albon, who after yet another accident (this time in Bahrain’s PL2) sees his place as Max Verstappen’s teammate shake even more. Team principal Chris Horner did not want to expose himself on the subject: we continue to make melina, in short, but the soap opera could be closed in days.
Hulkenberg: “Surprised to be Red Bull favorite”
The British manager refused to give “exit polls” between Albon, Hülkenberg and Perez: “As for the names of Max’s possible teammate, I know them. It depends, I’m concentrating on trying to give Alex the best possible chance. Sergio is driving great, he is there for all to see. Nico also did a great job when he was called up this year“, These are his words to the microphones of Sky Sport F1.
Engine freezing: Horner collects the yes Ferrari
More interesting are the statements regarding Ferrari’s yes to freeze of the engines: “It is definitely one great news, it is important for F1, including with regards to potential discussions with Honda. Mercedes, Ferrari and Honda are on the same line: three votes out of four are enough, it can be hoped that Renault will also find freezing sensible. There is an ongoing discussion with Honda, the positive side is that there is still some time left. We hope to have a clearer path ahead of us by the end of the year“.
