Red Bull to ‘take more time’ on 2026 line-up – Mekies

Red Bull Team Principal Laurent Mekies has revealed the organization is not rushing its decision on the 2026 driver line-up, particularly for Racing Bulls. Mekies emphasized the need to take "a bit more time" to evaluate developing talents like Yuki Tsunoda, who recently impressed despite a slow pit stop in Mexico. Other young drivers, including F2's Arvid Lindblad, are also being closely monitored, with Mekies praising Lindblad's FP1 performance. The strategy aims to give all prospects ample opportunity to prove themselves without distraction. While keen to avoid early commitments, Mekies confirmed a decision would be made before the season finale in Abu Dhabi.
