Permane downplays rumors regarding Tsolov and Racing Bulls.

      "We haven't even begun to talk about the team's lineup for 2027."

      Racing Bulls team principal Alan Permane has downplayed the increasing speculation connecting Red Bull junior Nikola Tsolov to a Formula 1 seat in 2027. Recent reports have indicated that the Formula 2 title contender may replace Liam Lawson to partner with Arvid Lindblad next season. "These are merely rumors," Permane stated. "To be honest, we haven’t discussed the team’s lineup for 2027 at all. Is Tsolov being considered? Certainly. He’s part of the Red Bull program and performing well in Formula 2, but I’m quite satisfied with the two drivers I currently have, and there are no discussions happening right now."
