Red Bull: carte blanche to Webber and Vettel

Red Bull Racing it has been proven more than once this season: priority was given neither to Mark Webber nor to Sebastian Vettel. Their clashes on the track gave credence to this thesis before the management team confirmed it.

Red Bull would certainly have liked to see the German dominate his teammate, due to the fact that he comes from the sector set up by the energy drink brand. But the Australian never failed and Red Bull did not wish to bully him in his quest for the world crown.

Before the last two Grands Prix of the season, Red Bull remains on the same course of action: no instructions, no leader. Dietrich Mateschitz, founder and boss of the Austrian company, told Spiegel: “ the race must remain the race! »

If it is represented in the world of F1 through his advisor – Helmut Marko -, Dietrich Mateschitz himself wishes to recall the philosophy of Red Bull. “ It should remain “catch me if you can” and not “let me pass because I’m better” ". At Interlagos, Webber should therefore not hear messages indicating “ Sebastian is faster than you » and vice versa?

Until the end, Webber and Vettel will have their destiny in their hands. Red Bull, which has proven its offbeat strategy in other disciplines and other sports, wants to see its two representatives in F1 compete for the title on the track, not in the earpieces. A strategy that should appeal to fans of beautiful sport? and to Fernando Alonso.
