Sky Sports F1 commentator David Croft has made shocking claims about Red Bull Racing, stating that the team currently has “the wrong driver” if they aim to challenge for the Formula 1 constructors’ title this season. Despite swapping Liam Lawson for Yuki Tsunoda, Croft believes that Red Bull needs a different driver alongside Max Verstappen to have a serious shot at the championship.

Croft’s bold statements come as Red Bull is trailing behind McLaren in the constructors’ standings by a significant 176 points. The commentator emphasized the importance of having a top-tier driver next to Verstappen, pointing out that while Tsunoda is a talented driver, he is not yet at the level of a race-winning driver like Lando Norris or George Russell.

During the Sky Sports F1 Show podcast, Croft expressed his doubts about Tsunoda’s current capabilities, suggesting that Red Bull should have pursued drivers like Carlos Sainz to strengthen their lineup. He highlighted the fierce competition in Formula 1 and the necessity for Red Bull to have a second driver who can consistently score points and challenge for victories.

Despite Croft’s critique, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has reiterated that the team’s primary focus this year is on the drivers’ championship rather than the constructors’. Horner acknowledged the challenges posed by McLaren in the constructors’ battle and emphasized the importance of supporting Verstappen in his pursuit of the drivers’ title.

As the Formula 1 season progresses, all eyes will be on Red Bull Racing to see if their current driver lineup can deliver the results needed to compete at the highest level. With tensions rising and competition fierce, the stakes have never been higher in the world of motorsport.
