The damaging message Red Bull has sent youngsters with F1 driver swap (www.motorsport.com)

Red Bull has pulled the trigger after just two rounds in 2025, swapping Liam Lawson for Yuki Tsunoda. But beyond the on-track implications, what message does it send to young drivers and the Red Bull junior program?

The thing is, this isn't new. This might be the most aggressive move we've seen them make so far

Then it's kind of new

Yuki should've been moved first and it was stupid that he wasn't

That's just it, this was the obvious choice at the end of last season as well as the proper way to groom Lawson. The fact RB fucked up the strategy here basically says RB is bad at planning more than 1 race ahead and may hint at sone underlying racism in the mix (looking at you Helmut)
