Interesting to see active drivers publicly liking and supporting such a head-on statement.

Despite many people talking shit, Max really has his heart in the right place

I mean the dude that got demoted came off as a real jerk, it's hard to empathize. Also it's not like dude is dead, he just got fired (and he got paid handsomely for it).

While I sorta agree with this, Red Bull has enough experience with failing second drivers that they predict that the chances of Lawson improving into consistent top 5 finishes are low. Gasly and Albon didn’t do it and neither did Perez when his performance tanked.

Also leaving Lawson in a car he has zero confidence in is also not good for his self esteem. Better to put him in a car where he can race against the mid field with confidence.
