Hadjar amits that 'explosive' Verstappen would be an extremely tough Red Bull teammate

GPBlog asked the Frenchman if he would take the Red Bull seat despite the struggles Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda have had in 2025.

"When I signed the contract with Red Bull four years ago, the goal was to get to Red Bull, so it hasn't changed," Hadjar replied.

However, the Frenchman acknowledges that securing the seat next to Verstappen would not be an easy task. "I think Max in the Red Bull is very fast. It's his car, and he drives it to the absolute limit. It's a more efficient car in high-speed corners. It's a faster car but it's apparently hard to exploit most of it," Hadjar explained.

Although the impressive rookie wants to move to the Austrian team in the future, he also emphasises that he is fully focused on his development at Racing Bulls. "It's not like I'm in total control, I'm scoring points every weekend, there's still lots to learn, so it makes more sense to stay where I'm at at the moment, that's for sure," he said.

Having Max Verstappen as anyone's teammate would be a challenge, Hadjar admits.
