The rumour mill is once again turning briskly at the moment. Rumours about the two Red Bull drivers, among others, are circulating on a weekly basis, but Sky Sports analyst Ted Kravitz does not feel that Sergio Perez will be replaced at Red Bull Racing next season. He spoke on the Sky Sports F1 podcast about his views of Red Bull's team.

"Liam Lawson is not ready, Daniel Ricciardo's not coming back, Alex Albon i think would be well advised to stay where he is and Helmut Marko doesn't really want him back from the quote you say, So i don't think anyones talking about Checo being replaced next year it doesn't make sense," Kravitz says.

Perez has managed two victories this Formula 1 season. In Saudi Arabia and in Azerbaijan, the Mexican was fastest. The other eight races of the season have all been won by the 25-year-old Verstappen.

"It caused Red Bull a problem when Checo was up there taking points of Max and Max was furious or angry and disappointed and that was a problem, and they are gonna win the constructors championship anyway with all Max's points and Max is going to win the World Championship, drivers championship," Kravitz said.
