Alex Albon is in the worst performance wise segment since his short F1 career began. A few more opaque performances and you can be sure that Helmut Markko will push the eject button. It is widely known that Red Bull like to substitute their drivers in the course of a season. Reality is that Red Bull has not been able to find a driver of Max Verstappen's calibre.
Did you see Max and Alex's identical Suzuka qualifying time last year? Alex has given Hamilton enough pressure to make him do uncharacteristic mistakes. Gasly nor Kvyat ever did. Ricciardo left on his own accord, no one showed him the door or kicked him out. Alex earned his way to F1 and made a name for himself through outstanding performances. He's also Thai and Asian, a perfect fit for Red Bull and great for representing Asian drivers.
Also, Red Bull have come out and said it's an aero issue yet people still insist it's something else mechanical or PU related. The balance issue is due to the new to RBR cape concept that they are behind on and late to implement, let alone understand it seems.
