While one Red Bull-contracted driver’s exit appears set in stone, another still has a few races to prove he still belongs in Formula 1. “From the very beginning of the race I was much stronger than Albon, who has a potentially faster car,” Russian Kvyat said. However, 26-year-old Kvyat appears to have already been given his marching orders by the boss of Red Bull’s driver program. “Even after Imola, we will not make a decision about Albon,” the Austrian is quoted by German-language motorsport-total.com. “Albon has until the last race in Abu Dhabi to prove himself and then we will make an internal decision about whether he can stay or whether we are looking for someone from outside,” said Marko.
