If rumors and reports are to be believed, Franco Colapinto and Liam Lawson are in pole position to possibly take Sergio Perez's place at Red Bull. The Kiwi has been impressive whenever he's had the chance to perform in an F1 car, while the Argentinian has been a sensation as well.

To make things worse for the Mexican, Perez's form has been poor, to say the least. The driver has not been a match in any which way to Max Verstappen at Red Bull, and hence the team has found it hard to have two drivers capable of scoring big points when the opportunity presents itself. When it comes to Perez, it does appear that the writing is already on the wall.
