Formula 1 returns to action this week with the Belgian Grand Prix.
However, one team will look a little different this weekend at Spa.
In the wake of the British Grand Prix Red Bull made a massive change at the top. After 20 season the team parted with the only Team Principal they have ever known, relieving Christian Horner of those duties and passing the baton to Laurent Mekies. The move comes as rumors continue to swirl about the future of Max Verstappen with the team, and whether the four-time champion will make a shocking move to Mercedes at the end of the season.
Silverstone also saw Drivers’ Championship leader Oscar Piastri hit with a ten-second penalty while leading the race, which opened the door for teammate Lando Norris to secure his second consecutive win, and trim Piastri’s lead in the title chase to just eight points.
Those are two of the major storylines facing the sport as the grid heads to Spa for this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix, the first race in a double-header that will end next week with the Hungarian Grand Prix, right before the August shutdown.
