Denied by Red Bull Racing but doesn't identify who made the statement and of course, as the article points out, doesn't deny that Newey could be leaving for a sabbatical.
As with all the claims and accusations in this whole RBR saga, may be a while before we know what is really happening. |

Massive news - if it is true. I know a modern F1 car is the result of more than one mans labour, but even so I would imagine that pretty much every single F1 team would love to have him onboard.
Would he even want to continue I wonder? He must be minted and perhaps would like more time to do other things? It would be interesting to hear what he has to say. |

He has recently said he has no interest in retiring because he looks at his brain as a muscle that needs exercising.
Also because he could dictate the terms on which he was going to supply services to Red Bull I doubt those terms would have included gardening leave provisions. |

Jos Verstappen is running his mouth yet again.
https://x.com/Planet_F1/status/1785767706190340459 The blowup Jos is referring to here is Helmut Marko and their collective threat of Max leaving to get rid of Horner. That is the doomsday scenario he is painting. The real doomsday scenario for Red Bull racing is if Christian Horner leaves. He built RBR. He already managed the team through a down cycle and the loss of a 4 time champion driver in Vettel. Losing Max will hurt. But losing drivers is part of the business. That Horner has 18 years of experience with. Even Pierre Wacha reports directly to Christian Horner. Not Newey. Or Helmut Marko. Does anyone really think that Red Bull will be the same with Wacha reporting to a rookie CEO like Oliver Mitzlaff ? Who was running marathons when Red Bull started? Not a chance. |

After 7 GPs, Yuki Tsunoda is currently 10th in the WDC, with 15 points. Team mate Danny Ric is 14th, with 5 points and the two Haas drivers, Nico Hülkenberg and Kevin Magnussen are 13th and 16th, with 6 and 1 point.
There's a long way to go, with 17 more GPs, so I think Yuki Tsunoda's desire to leave the Red Bull program is a little premature at this stage. Last edited by bjohnsonsmith; Yesterday at 12:30. Reason: typo |

This is Tsunoda we are talking about not Verstappen. I don't know who wrote that piece above - but the use of phrases such as BOMBSEHLL and SHAKEN THE WORLD OF F1 and OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCES seem a little over-excited. Perhaps the author has been drinking to many cans of Monster Energy drink.
I would perhaps replace such phrases with BANG AVERAGE DRIVER and SOME PEOPLE ARE A LITTLE BIT INTERESTED. |

In view of Bearman's failure to establish any dominance in F2 that may not be altogether a wrong move. Another year in F2 will not create any real lack of progress in Bearman's career. He can remain a reserve for both F1 teams will some F1 pedigree. If he has an awesome second year in F2 then he will only enhance his prowess and doing some WEC in 2025 as well as F2 could be a further enhancement. After all Ferrari has Leclerc and Hamilton both on long term contracts. Bearman is 17 going on 18, so he has a lot of years left to race and a solid F2, some good Fp1 outings and some WEC would only reinforce his solidity as a reliable, consistent bet for a seat at Haas for a couple of years and then on to Ferrari as a substitute for Hamilton after his contract runs out. Putting Bearman in the Haas as a number two in 2025 and then him having a Sargent type year at Haas will not open any doors for him. |
