Summary

  • Hadjar said at the FIA press conference in Baku that he does not know how long his Red Bull contract runs beyond the already confirmed 2027 season, adding that he left negotiations to his representatives.
  • The admission came hours after Red Bull confirmed the Frenchman will stay alongside Max Verstappen in 2027 following a strong start with the team after his move up from Racing Bulls.
  • Hadjar also said Red Bull imposed no boxing ban after the wrist injury that sidelined him for three straight races, saying he was only told to be more careful.
  • Other drivers described tighter limits elsewhere: Charles Leclerc said Ferrari discourages activities such as skydiving and risky in-season skiing, while Alex Albon said Williams monitors extreme sports more closely.
