The F1 world has been buzzing non-stop about Yuki Tsunoda replacing Liam Lawson in Red Bull’s second seat—so let’s settle it once and for all. We break down why Red Bull made this decision, how it fits into their history of ruthless driver swaps, and how Tsunoda's driving style may actually suit the car. Plus, we separate fact from fiction in Drive to Survive, dig into Mercedes’ push for P2 in the Constructors’ battle, and tackle burning questions: Is Bottas really driving a McLaren? If Max Verstappen were to leave Red Bull, where would he go? All that and more in this week’s episode of the Critical Lap!
