#3 Alex Albon impresses for Red Bull
Singapore will provide for a proper teammate battle between Alex Albon and Max Verstappen. We haven’t yet seen the two Red Bull Racing drivers go head-to-head in a qualifying session because of the penalties either of them have copped up since Alex joined the team.
Currently, expecting Alex to match up to Verstappen’s speed would be a big ask from him but all eyes would be on the 23-year-old to see how well he fares. The Thai driver has impressed many with his bold overtakes in the two Grands Prix that he has raced in the Red Bull colours. Now is the time to showcase his skill concerning one-lap speed.
With speculation a constant nowadays regarding changes to the driver line-up in the energy drinks team, quickly impressing the bigwigs at Red Bull is necessary. Alex will have to give Max a run for his money or at least be right on his heels to become a permanent fixture in the Milton Keynes-based outfit.
