A former Red Bull Formula 1 driver revealed the brutal way in which he was told that he would no longer be racing for the team.
Red Bull have never been afraid to pull the trigger when a driver is deemed to be underperforming. Nyck de Vries became the latest to find out the hard way, axed by AlphaTauri on Tuesday after failing to score a point in his 10 appearances for the team.
It comes four years after Pierre Gasly was demoted back down to the sister team after 13 races as he crumbled under the pressure of the top team. A few years before Daniil Kvyat was also moved down so that a certain Max Verstappen could drive for Red Bull Racing.
