Albon spent a season-and-a-half at Red Bull before he was dropped at the end of 2020 having failed to match the performances of teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen. 

The British-born Thai was replaced by168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Sergio Perez🌸 but has been one of the stand-out performers since returning to the F1 grid with Williams in 2022, prompting some to suggest he was let go by Red Bull too soon. 

Red Bull motorsport advisor Marko has pointed to two incidents involving Hamilton that had a negative impact🅠 on Albon. 

The first occurred at the 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix when Hamilton spun Albon out of second place, before a further clash between the pair at the 2020 Austrian Grand Prix denied Albon the chance of fighꦉting for a potential maiden win. 

“Alex, I have to say, was really unlucky,” Marko🎀 told the Inside Line po𒉰dcast.

“In 𝕴Brazil, he was fighting for secon☂d position when Hamilton turned him around.

🥃“Fine, it didn’t help Alex♕. But he lost his podium.

“And 𝓡the next, which was more severe, was in Austria, when Alex was fighting f🤪or the win when, again, it was turned around by Hamilton.

“That hit his confidence massively… massively.

“Second, or even the win, was on the table.ꦛ Someone took the glory away. 

“That made it difficult from this moment, his self-confidence was down and we needed someone we knew to fight for t🅺he championship, we needed two solid drivers.”
