You too?

I dont see you at the meetings

Meantime, it will be interesting to see how quick the Alpha Tauri is when Mr Riccardo comes back from holidays.

Actually I dont know if enough has been made of the sacrifice DR made to thump the fence rather than side on impact his replacement. It could have been a serious incident.. not sure if all would survive.. intact

I don't expect the AT to be any quicker. But definitely agree with the sacrifice.

Thanks, I stand corrected. Not sure why I thought his first contract with RBR was when he joined Toro Rosso but thanks for enlightening me

Maybe because he’s so associated with RBR. And it was a very different time when he was with STR

I don't recall his VAR F3 car running in Red Bull livery in F3?

Just to back Peebee's claim of latter part of the season.....

Certainly by Imola 2014 in October Max (himself) was running in in an RBR racesuit.

In fact he ran with Red Bull logos on his car certainly from Nurburgring in August. Not sure about the preceding Spielberg race.

A Van Amersfoot Racing statement (just) pre Nurburgring:

15/08/2014
Red Bull and Max Verstappen have announced today Max is now part of the Red Bull Junior Team, the Austrian Formula 1 outfit’s driver development program. This is effective immediately and the 16-year-old Van Amersfoort Racing driver will continue his FIA Formula 3 European Championship campaign at the Nürburgring this weekend as a Red Bull Junior. The VAR team is working hard to prepare his Dallara Volkswagen for the upcoming race weekend, so he can continue to shine in his new Red Bull livery.

Well, I stand corrected! Can't believe that is nearly 10 years ago!

My paddock sources say all of this clearly true stuff is wrong.

Lawson apparently found out from Danny facetiming him that he’d be racing this weekend. So just one more runaround before Danny Ric presumably is fit again in Austin
