Jos Verstappen doubts Max Verstappen will leave Red Bull because of Gianpiero Lambiase's departure like he vowed in 2021 - Who do you think should replace GP?

Totally agree mate, but do you think they have enough time to figure out improvements that allow Max or Isack to get something more out of the car? I'm not so sure

Pierre Wache better come up with some improvements to make the RB22 fast and driveable. 2025 the RB21 had a tiny operating window only max could get right until midseason upgrades but was also quick when in the window. The RB22 is slow and unpredictable but the tyre window is wider but it eats tyres. So Wache can't make a base car like the Vcarb

They're gonna need to do a bunch of promotions from VCARB imo. Starting with Lawson so he's back with his BFF Isack, once Max leaves. But also engineers. It shouldn't be possible for VCARB to make such good cars with less than half Red Bull's resources.

It'll almost certainly be a promotion from within the team, because they have to understand how the team functions perfectly. And an engineer who has some familiarity with drivers. So it'll be someone in a fairly high up position at RBR, but someone who probably nobody really knows of as an F1 identity as yet.

TBH, like most fans, I have no idea who RBR would replace Lambiase with.

It's a tough one, isn't it? I'm sure we're potentially going to hear some replacement options during the season now!
