– It was hard to see how Liam fought the RB21 boat in the first two races, and as a result we decided to change the pilot. We entered the season -2025 with two purposes – to preserve the title of world champion among riders and return the championship title among designers, and this is a purely sports solution. We understand that we still have a lot of work with RB21, and Yuki’s experience will be very useful for the development of the current machine. We welcome him to the team and look forward to when he sits behind the wheel of RB21.

We are obliged to protect and develop Liam, and together we understand that after such a difficult start it makes sense to act quickly so that Liam can gain experience, continuing his career in Formula 1 in “Rating Bulls” – in the team and the environment that he knows well, ”said Christian Horner, head of Red Bull.

Three Formula 1 teams filed a lawsuit due to the possible technical advantage of Mercedes and Red Bull

The Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin teams have filed a joint lawsuit with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) over the advantage that Mercedes and Red Bull may have in the 2026 season under the new technical regulations, The Race reports.

In 2026, Formula 1 will switch to new technical regulations, which provide for a reduction in the fuel compression ratio in power plants from 18:1 to 16:1. This indicator will be monitored off the track.

According to the source, Mercedes and Red Bull have found a way to pass the tests while maintaining the actual race compression ratio at 18:1. This could give teams an advantage of 0.3-0.4 seconds per lap.

— The regulations clearly define the maximum compression ratio and the method for measuring it, based on static conditions at ambient temperature. This procedure remains unchanged despite the reduction in the permissible compression ratio for 2026, the FIA ​​said in a statement.

The FIA ​​does not intend to change the regulations at least until the tests are carried out. Teams are allowed to update their power unit designs every six races of the season.
