Red Bull has insisted that the team hasn’t adopted a “defeatist” approach towards the F1 title in 2025, despite a scheduled meeting about the gap to McLaren.

I’m sticking out my neck and saying I think Oscar has a better shot. I think his ceiling has always been higher than Lando’s and I think he is stronger mentally. His pace and racecraft have always been superb, his issues were tyre management and qualy and he seems to have addressed both.
It would also be quite amusing if either Max or George takes it on sheer consistency - becoming the first F1 champion without winning a single race.
Crazy that it’s never happened before. That would be a super entertaining way to win a championship. Just always lurking behind the race winners slowly stacking those points as they take turns taking each other out lol
It’s been quite close a couple of times. Keke Rosberg famously won only a single race when he got his championship, and Kimi Räikkönen was only 2 points away from doing the same in 2003.
I fuckin miss Kimi. Max is slowly turning into him, but I don’t know if anyone else will ever be able to reach Kimi levels of not giving a shit ever again.
I hope Robin does well and we can have another Räikkönen in the paddock one day.
Yeah same. Kimi is my favorite driver, even though I think it’s pretty clear his levels of not giving a shit got in the way of him realizing his true potential. But you know what? I don’t think he gives a shit about that either.
I don’t really get the same energy from Max, personally, but I get what you mean in a sense. I actually think I get more Kimi vibes from Oscar, though? He’s definitely got the unfazed-ness down, even if he’s a little too media friendly to be a true heir.
I think Robin is doing pretty well in karting thus far so it’s looking promising. Still a couple of years away from getting a shot in single seaters though.
