Max Verstappen has been advised to set aside his rivalry with Lewis Hamilton as Red Bull’s internal challenges become more apparent. While the two drivers have had intense battles in recent seasons, experts suggest that Verstappen’s focus should be on his own team’s growing issues rather than external competition.
Reports indicate that Red Bull is dealing with significant technical and managerial struggles, which could impact their performance for the remainder of the season. With ongoing concerns about car development and internal team dynamics, Verstappen’s dominance on the track may be at risk.
Former F1 driver and pundit David Coulthard suggested that Verstappen should not be distracted by past rivalries but instead concentrate on ensuring Red Bull remains competitive. “The biggest challenge for Max isn’t Lewis; it’s making sure his team stays ahead,” Coulthard said.
Red Bull has been under scrutiny following speculation about leadership tensions and engineering setbacks. Despite a strong start to the season, recent races have exposed potential weaknesses in their car’s development, allowing competitors like McLaren and Ferrari to close the gap.
With Hamilton set to move to Ferrari in 2025, the rivalry between him and Verstappen could take a backseat. Instead, Verstappen’s priority must be maintaining Red Bull’s dominance amid increasing pressure from other teams. As the season progresses, all eyes will be on how Red Bull addresses its challenges and whether Verstappen can continue his reign at the top of Formula 1.
