Red Bull will restructure their F1 engineering team with Max Verstappen ’s race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase promoted to a new role. Design guru Adrian Newey and sporting director Jonathan Wheatley will leave the world champions ahead of the 2025 F1 season, with Newey joining Aston Martin and Wheatley moving to Audi.

Max Verstappen could reportedly leave Red Bull next year and join a new team due to a clause in his contract. According to Sky Sport Italia, he will be entitled to leave if he is not in the top three in the standings after the 'first Grands Prix' in 2025.

Verstappen needs to tame a car he’s called a “monster” to hold off Norris and defend his Formula 1 title, all while the Red Bull team’s years of dominance in Formula 1 seem to be nearing their end. Verstappen and Red Bull haven’t won any of the last six races going into the Azerbaijan Grand Prix on Sunday.

McLaren have taken a 20-point lead after Oscar Piastri’s win in Baku, while Lando Norris’ fourth place has cut Verstappen’s lead to 59 points.
