Alex Albon to DTM

(1/1)

cosworth151:
Alex Albon will drive for Red Bull in 2021 - just not in F1.

Albon will drive for the Red Bull entry in the DTM series. The article sounds like he will still be the test & reserve driver for RBR F1. At least he can still race on a regular basis & hopefully keep his skills sharp.

John S:
Think you're right Cos, this is about keeping him race sharp. If Perez fails to deliver Red Bull will need Alex for either RBR or AT in 22.

Jericoke:
I really thought that Red Bull was going to try something new and actually develop a driver.

I guess this is a little 'new'. 

Still, if Albon puts in a strong DTM start, and Perez refuses to play Max's game, we might see more musical chairs at Red Bull.
