This is typical of Red Bull. No one should be surprised by this. Hell Kyvatt was ahead of Ricciardo in championship points when they demoted him to Toro Rosso, and then he got replaced again in the middle of the season for Max.
Albon had a short stint at Red Bull, they did Pierre Gasly dirty too.
These are all examples of drivers who showed strong races and have gotten podiums.
Nyck never raced well this year.
To be honest, apart from Kvyat, I don't feel bad for Gasly or Albon. Albon had 30ish races and was woeful and Gasly argued with Newey of all people. Red Bull got to do what they got to do, however, why Ricciardo and not a RB junior?
Albon and Gasly have demonstrated they are good drivers. My point was even good drivers get the boot at cutthroat Redbull.
