Being Max Verstappen's team-mate has been an issue for the last six years but Liam Lawson's shock demotion after just two races is extreme, even by Red Bull standards.
Yuki Tsunoda will become the latest driver to step into what almost everyone sees as the toughest seat in F1 while Lawson returns to Racing Bulls, where the hope is he will re-discover some confidence.
Lawson was chosen as Sergio Perez's successor over the winter after the Mexican's own struggles in the car had a major impact on Red Bull failing to retain the Constructors' Championship.
