Why should Russel go to RBR?
Current Red Bull isn’t better than the Mercedes and we all feel that 2026 will be a disaster for Red Bull
I don't think Russell particularly wants to go to RedBull, but it might be his best option if he finds himself out of Mercedes.
Why RB will want Russel really? I mean what he has shown in comparison to Max and i don't speak for championships now. He is above average and that's it, Max is a generation talent and can only be replaced with an equal or a bit less equal like Leclerc for example.
I really don't get all the praise for Russel really and i like the guy but he needs to show some exceptional driving to up his status.
I don't think Red Bull particularly wants Russell, but he might be their best option if they find themselves without Max.

There’s no indication that Max is leaving Red Bull even if his contract allows him to do so.
Horner has been overhyping the car, despite Max’s concerns. There’s a clear difference between their opinions.

In that frame, I think the car isn’t good. The difficulties Yuki has with it, coupled with the challenges Max has had in practice, suggests that Max is right about the car’s performance.

I don’t think think there is disagreement about the cars issues. Horner’s role is not the same as Max’s. Horner has a job to maintain morale by praising the work that is being done, and to make Red Bull look good in the media by hyping the small wins and defending his drivers no matter what.
