Michael Schumacher cruised to the 2002 F1 drivers' title, finishing a considerable 67 points ahead of Rubens Barrichello. However, in the opening rounds that year, Ferrari was not prepared to take any chances. In particular, in the Austrian Grand Prix. The Red Bull Ring – known as the A1 Ring at the time – hosted the sixth round of the season, with Schumacher having won four of the opening five races.

Former F1 driver Ralf Schumacher has backed Lewis Hamilton to make a shock early exit from Ferrari. Except for his sprint pole and win in China, the seven-time F1 champion has endured a troublesome start to life at Ferrari. Over the opening five rounds, Hamilton has been comfortably adrift of team-mate Charles Leclerc and visibly dejected in the media pen by his current struggles with the SF-25.

Dutch racing driver Tim Coronel believes Yuki Tsunoda is "not yet good enough" to race for Red Bull, following a mixed debut for the team in the Japanese Grand Prix. Tsunoda looked immediately comfortable in the RB21 from his first lap in free practice at Suzuka, and was consistently within three-tenths of Max Verstappen ahead of qualifying. However, it all went wrong for the Japanese driver in Q2 after making a costly mistake going into the first corner on his final lap.

Red Bull motorsport advisor Helmut Marko has confirmed that Max Verstappen is "not happy" with the team's driver swap after just two races. It was announced on Thursday morning that Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda would swap seats from next weekend's Japanese Grand Prix, but not due to the New Zealander's performances. Lawson failed to score a point across the opening two grands prix and also failed to escape the first part of qualifying across any format.

Jos Verstappen has not ruled out competing with his son Max in some form of motorsport but it appears the four-time F1 drivers' champion will have to fight on his father's turf. The Red Bull driver has mentioned in the past how much he would like to compete alongside his dad in endurance racing, with a particular eye on the 24 Hours of Le Mans. However, the elder Verstappen has rebuffed the approaches, stating he has no interest in joining the 27-year-old and Fernando Alonso to form a driver trio.
