Red Bull is a team capable of dominating the competition thanks to the talent of its pilots, who formerly bull rossoand today in AlphaTauriThey get their full potential.
Some of the decisions they have made have been perfect, but others have been drastic and did not pay off as well.
Daniel Kvyat He was replaced in the middle of the season by max verstappen. This bet could not have gone any better for the Austrian team, which had just come from being in the dry dock for several years with the glorious stage of Mercedes.
However, previous years they made a blunder that led to a drought from 2014 to 2020.
In 2012 they decided to stop having Jaime Alguersuari and Sebastian Buemi. The Spaniard and the Swiss wowed all the fans except Helmut Marko.
“Alguersuari and Buemi are not winning drivers“, he said in ‘la Gazzetta dello Sport’
Perhaps many do not remember who it was Sebastian Buemi. The former Toro Rosso driver shared a team with Jaime Alguersuari for three years.
Both were destined to be teammates of vettel, and take his place in the future… but in December 2011 the leaders of Red Bull dispensed with his services.
Daniel Ricciardo and the French Jean-Eric Vergne They occupied their flyers. Alguersuari did not compete again, and the Swiss endured a year in F1 as a test driver for Red Bull and then made the leap to the Resistance World Championship.
As a result of Buemi’s triumphs in that modality, Jaime has been active in networks.
The Catalan has published several ‘tweets’ questioning the decision of the red bull managers: “I just had breakfast and I realized something… 11 years ago they told us that they were going to replace us because we were not winners... Please forget about me for a second,” he said.
On adding wins and trophies to his back.. i forgot how many world titles he has already to his back and im not just happy and proud of him but as time goes by I realized how many race wins and maybe world titles he would see won at Red Bull racing F1. Again pls dont judge me…

The Spanish expilot wanted to give prominence to Sebastien Buemi: “About adding victories and trophies to his back… orI forgot how many world titles he already has on his back“, stressed
“And I’m not only happy and proud of himBut as time goes on I realized how many race wins and maybe world titles I would have won in Red Bull Racing F1,” he revealed.
“This is just my personal opinion of my teammate (Buemi), based on statistics and facts. I don’t want to pretend what my performance would have been…!but it was also written! Ciao!” she concluded.
These words only reflect the thought of many pilots that they ended on the wrong foot with Helmut Marko and went victims of Red Bull’s promises.
