Red Bull's Marko: Vettel's return 'not on the cards' for now
Sebastian Vettel's return to his former Red Bull Formula One team as an official is "not on the cards at the moment," team advisor Helmut Mark has said. "The succession plan is something that is of course on the table, but there are no concrete names and no concrete talks," Marko told Sky TV on Friday at the Austrian Grand Prix. Advertisement Earlier this week, Vettel revealed that he was in early talks with his former team and Marko about the idea of succeeding the 82-year-old Austrian when his contract with the team ends in 2026. "We're in contact about this, though maybe not so intensively or in-depth yet, but it's possible," Vettel told Austrian broadcasters ORF. "What form that might take will have to be seen. He's already said a few times that he'd stop, but he's still here, and I wish him all the best so that he stays around for a very long time." Marko has been involved with Red Bull since the team's beginnings in 2005. He has previously described Vettel as the "ideal candidate" to replace him. Advertisement Vettel won his four F1 titles with Red Bull between 2010 and 2013 before moving to Ferrari in 2015, where he stayed until 2020. The German driver retired in 2022 after two years with Aston Martin. Since then, the father of three has been particularly committed to diversity and sustainability projects.

Red Bull protest Russell's third place in Miami
MIAMI, May 4 (Reuters) - Max Verstappen's Red Bull Formula One team protested George Russell's third place for Mercedes in the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday, with stewards summoning representatives of both teams. Four times world champion Verstappen finished fourth in the race, 2.312 seconds behind the Briton, after starting on pole position. McLaren's Oscar Piastri won the race, ahead of teammate Lando Norris. Red Bull alleged Russell had failed to slow when yellow flags were waved during a virtual safety car period. A five-second time penalty would promote Verstappen onto the podium. "We've registered a protest with the (governing) FIA regarding George Russell," Red Bull boss Christian Horner told reporters. "From the GPS that we can see quite clearly while he did lift he did not reduce speed and the regulation is quite explicitly clear that there has to be a reduction of speed. "The car has kept accelerating, just at a slower rate than it would normally."
