Drivers are lining up to replace Sergio Perez but one 'unfortunately' can't be on the Red Bull list.
As Formula 1’s rumour mill debates Sergio Perez’s replacement, Helmut Marko says “unfortunately” Alex Albon cannot be on the list of candidates due to his long-term Williams contract.
He missed out on a podium in his first season, Lewis Hamilton costing him a top-three result at the 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix, but did secure two in his second – and only full – season with Red Bull.He, however, missed out on a race win when he was once again taken out by Hamilton, this time at the 2020 Austrian Grand Prix.
Marko accepts that were it not for his collisions with Hamilton, Albon actually did a decent job at Red Bull. But that doesn’t mean he’ll be back in the cockpit with the driver having signed a multi-year deal with Williams.
