The slow start of Red Bull of the 2025 Formula 1 season has led to emergency meetings in the Paddock to discuss a plan in advance, and has already set up a diver switch.
As well as speculation about the future of their other chair.
The future of Max Verstappen with Red Bull has been a constant speculation point thourout the F1 Paddock, and Red Bull Senior adviser Helmut Marko Ruzzite those flames after a difficult weekend for the Bahrain Grand Prix team. While Verstappen continued to fight for a sixth place finish because of Trouble Pit Lane and a car that is difficult to sort, Marko opened the door to raised speculation while speaking after the race to Sky Sports Germany.
“The concern [about Verstappen leaving] Is great, “said Marko in Bahrain.” As I said, improvements have to eat in the near future, so that he has a car with which he can win Ágain.

“The Sems like everyone talks about my future, except me. I am focused on the car and work with the team,” said Verstappen as quoted by F1 writer Erik van Haren.
“I see relaxed,” added the four -time champion.
The Red Bull driver outlined the sub of his current frustration with the challenger of the team, the RB21. “We struggled with the balance, access to the balance between the corner is not what I want it to be,” said Verstappen.
“Hopefully the asphalt is better here.
“I am happy, I am not very happy with my car. But we all want to be better, there is no secret to that. We all want to improve,” says Verstappen.
He also found sub -troost in how quickly the script turned around last season. Red Bull started the year as the dominant package on the grid, but towards the end of the season, McLaren was on top of the rankings of the constructors.
Now it is McLaren in the front and it is Red Bull who chases them.
“I’m just racing on race. I think it will be better than Bahrain.
“The rest is out of my hands – we are not the fastest at the moment, so it’s hard to think of a championship, but it’s a long way.
“Last year it all looked great and we know how the season ended up,” concluded wispings.
