Follow Us
Alex Albon has faced nothing but struggles since the start of this season. His two-year stint with Red Bull has been one-sided, as he is still figuring out a way to lap at least as fast as his dominating teammate, Max Verstappen. So, it is quite obvious who has done the “worst job” in that Red Bull so far.
Red Bull recently posted a video on YouTube, where the two drivers answer questions related to their 2020 season. In that video, the two drivers faced an unexpectedly tricky question. As a response to the question, Max trolled his struggling teammate and took a hilarious dig at Albon’s mechanics.

What did Max Verstappen say?
It was Max’s turn to pick up a card. Unfortunately for Albon, it ended up being one of the questions he would have hoped not to face.
“Who has done the worst job in the team?” Max asked. Albon sighed a bit to the question. However, before he could give an answer, Max replied to his own question saying, “I think the mechanics repairing Alex’s car” as the Dutchman burst into laughter.

Albon, too, acknowledged his teammate’s answer with a bit of a chuckle. “Exactly! Basically, yes,” he jokingly said. Eventually, Max supporting Albon’s 2020 season replied, “It hasn’t been that bad.”
He then asked Albon about his crash at Silverstone earlier this season, “Where did you shunt in Silverstone?” Max asked.
“You know, the Maggots and Beckets, and then the quick right,” Albon replied.
I shunted on the way to the grid: Verstappen
In an attempt at keeping his fight alive with his teammate on the topic of who had the worst season, Max pointed to his crash even before the lights went out at the Hungarian Grand Prix.
“I mean, I shunted on the way to the grid. So I can’t say anything,” Max joked. Albon took no time and replied, “That’s fine. They got it repaired.”

Although the two drivers made their questionnaire as fun as possible, in reality, their fans are genuinely asking them these questions.
Of course, Max made some occasional blunders that prevented him from scoring good points this season. However, Albon’s struggles have always overshadowed those tiny mistakes made by his teammate.

Red Bull have given enough support from their side to help Albon find some pace in that car. Unfortunately, the results haven’t been promising so far from Albon’s end, and there are no signs of the results improving in the future either.
But have your say: Should Red bull give Albon another year in that pacy car, or should they go after other options and sign a driver outside their young drivers’ programme? Like Sergio Perez, perhaps?
