I’m still unconvinced by him tbh. He has clearly improved a lot but I’m not sure he’s good enough for Red Bull.
If he keeps improving then he might get a chance at some point though.
If I had to guess I’d say:
2024: Verstappen and Perez
2025: Verstappen and Tsunoda/Ricciardo/Lawson
2026: Verstappen and Norris (long term)
Why would Norris go from being team leader to Marko’s punching bag?
To win races and compete at the front of the grid. Being a team leader of an average and inconsistent McLaren team is unlikely to win him anything beyond a few odd podium trophies per season.
I think he deserves a chance, even just for a weekend or practice session
