Juan Pablo Montoya compares Red Bull Racing’s approach to managing their drivers with Mercedes’. Montoya observed that while Mercedes supported both their drivers during Hamilton’s domination, Red Bull exclusively focuses on Max Verstappen. Montoya compared this to Hamilton consistently winning races even with a talented teammate. He explained that Mercedes ensured both drivers had a fair chance to compete, while Red Bull takes a different approach.
According to Montoya, Red Bull’s strategy promotes harmony within the team by acknowledging that only one driver has the opportunity to win. However, from the fans’ perspective, they may prefer Mercedes’ approach. Montoya highlighted that Mercedes did not favor one car over the other, as demonstrated by Rosberg winning the world championship alongside Hamilton. He emphasized that race performance is influenced by the challenges and changes each season brings, and it is important for fans to witness exciting competition.
In summary, Montoya believes that Red Bull’s current situation is not ideal, and they may be hiding it from the public. He suggests that Red Bull should prioritize both drivers to ensure intense competition with other teams. Ultimately, fans would love to see both drivers performing at their best until the end of the season.
