It’s been interesting to watch and read post race synopsis of the downfall/current predicament of Red Bull. The general consensus is that Max’s skills were able to compensate for a poorly designed car until he couldn’t manage the issues any longer. The second seat for multitudes of issues wasn’t able to control the car in the same way which dictated that they be tossed aside for more competent drivers. Sadly, they are only now realizing that it’s the car that’s the issue and that no one is going to succeed until changes are made to make the car more drivable.
Basically, the car has evolved to a point that even Max can’t control it and the second seat doesn’t have much of a chance until major design changes take place.
It will be an interesting season and I for one, hope to see Lewis win a few to instill confidence back into him. It may also be good for Max in learning a little humility and sportsmanship…but then again…
