Tsunoda still 'not good enough' as Red Bull closes on 2026 decision Red Bull says Yuki Tsunoda's performances are still 'not good enough' ahead of the likely crunch decision weekend for finalising its 2026 F1 line-up
Red Bull management must have realised by now that nobody is good enough to be paired with Max Verstappen. Whatever the circumstances, Max always extract more of his car than his team mate.

Mekies’ Ferrari-style approach key to Red Bull revival Oct.23 (GMM) Red Bull’s sudden return to form after Christian Horner’s dismissal has not gone unnoticed by anyone – least of all by those who once worked alongside the ousted team boss. Writing in La Gazzetta dello Sport, technical analyst Paolo Filisetti described what has actually changed inside Milton Keynes since Mekies’ arrival. He noted that from Monza onward – coinciding with the debut of a new floor and the team’s adoption of Ferrari-style simulator setup routines – Red Bull began preparing its baseline setup far more precisely before each weekend. https://www.gptours.com/gr_news/mekies-ferrari-style-approach-key-to-red-bull-revival/ RBR appears to make Ferrari-style work better than Ferrari!!
No blame culture as Mercedes have. Friday setup by listening to Max finally and continued upgrades with a new wing on front and floor. This all to give Max the confidence that as many think they will be weak early in 2026, the team can develop to improve. Something that was lacking under Horner. It also questions why Wache was not more forthcoming with information or having more influence. Have a tech based/engineer with good management skills like Mekies is paying off. He also does not run the Power Trains and anything else Horner had 'responsibility' for lol. They fired him and improved. Do 'the math' on that.
Even a rookie beat Tsunoda! That car number one is a rocket! No wonder Verstappen wins easily. Image Unavailable, Please Login
