Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda will work under new Red Bull team principal Laurent Mekies for the first time this weekend at the Belgian Grand Prix.

Sainz begans his F1 career with Red Bull’s junior team Toro Rosso (now VCARB) in 2015, paired alongside Max Verstappen in what quickly became one of the sport’s fiercest rookie rivalries. Although their relationship as teammates was intense, Sainz insisted it was a “healthy rivalry” and that it has significantly improved since.
