So looking forward to this season. Especially Melbourne as I’ve lashed out $20k for me and my son to attend. You only live once. Or possibly twice if you are an Aston fan.

Kind of blows my 30 quid entry fee to see a BTCC race at Brands into the weeds.

Interesting !

MAX didn't got access at the Red Bull RB20 presentation !
MAX was held back from the Red Bull entrance by a security guard . Because MAX didn't got the yellow entrance pass...
The security guard said : Without entrance pass you don't have access !

MAX said : Are you kidding me . I'm a Red Bull Formula 1 driver .
10 sec. later ...The security guard got an important call !

Not my definition of an Ambassador but with blatant success being `everything` that a brand requires one can not dispute it ...

If it's good enough for Hamilton to ask for the accolade then MAX is worthy also.

There is a fish and chip shop down the road from me but rarely have I indulged in having it and if so on a Friday which is traditionally a fish dinner day and not with mushy peas but garden peas.

Not exactly the same. While the impact of Max on Red Bull Racing has been nothing but extraordinary, How much of Red Bull Racing is part of Red Bull GmbH being its one of many subsidiaries? Hamilton being an ambassador for Mercedes-Benz makes a lot more sense because Mercedes-AMG F1 is a direct extension of Mercedes-Benz AG and from a marketing and operation standpoint, there's a closer relationship between the two than Red Bull Racing and Red Bull GmbH.

Not saying you're wrong, but this is more of a response to the original comment you referenced. Hamilton is better suited to be used as one of many faces representing Mercedes-Benz. Not sure if Max being the face of Red Bull really translates to any of it's other subsidiaries outside of Red Bull Racing and RB Formula One Team (Scuderia AlphaTauri).

Breaking !

Starting from the Japan GP (Suzuka) the RB20 gets a very surprising upgrade !
The RB20 gets a 'zero side-pod design in Japan...
Source is the Dutch article => https://gp33.nl/f1-nieuws/red-bull-g...update-in-2024

You can see it as an elbow punch in Wolff's face !
