Kravitz warns Red Bull of bleak future as 'undriveable' car will 'finish last' without Verstappen

When Max Verstappen drops out of a race, it's essentially a given that few points will be scored by the Austrian team, Ted Kravitz concluded in his Ted’s Notebook show on Sky Sports.

"I would imagine it is identical to the other Red Bull, but no one can drive it. So it's not Yuki Tsunoda's fault, it wasn't Liam Lawson's, or Sergio Perez's fault. It wasn't Daniel Ricciardo's fault. It wasn't any of it. It's the car." The journalist said.

Kravitz wondered what would be left of Red Bull if Verstappen leaves. The Dutchman has once again been linked with Mercedes in the past few days.

"But if Max Verstappen isn't driving your car because he goes out at the beginning or because he's not in the team anymore, which a lot have been speaking about, then what are you left with? You're left wth an undriveable car that nobody can score any points in," he explained.

The Sky Sports analyst then wondered what the team could do to make the car easier to handle. The Racing Bulls' sister team performed well in Austria, with former Red Bull driver Liam Lawson taking sixth place.

Kravitz concluded with a clear conclusion to Red Bull: "Heaven forbid, if Max does leave this team, they're going to finish last"
