Verstappen backs Albon to succeed in “less pressured environment”
Albon was dropped by Red Bull at the end of 2020 after one-and-a-half seasons as Verstappen’s team-mate, with the team opting to bring in Sergio Perez as his replacement.
Albon has worked as Red Bull’s reserve driver through this year, but will make a racing comeback in 2022 after being signed by Williams to replace George Russell.
