Red Bull Racing have been dominant in the last two seasons as Max Verstappen won the World Championship in 2021 and 2022.
Verstappen is currently going after the 3rd title in a row as he is leading F1 Standings, meanwhile, Red Bull Racing lead the Constructors' table. Red Bull have had 12 wins and 19 podiums so far this year.
However, although Red Bull and Verstappen are flying, the rest of the table have emerged in a tight battle as Sergio Perez is second with 189 points, meanwhile, 3rd placed Fernando Alonso has 149 points.
Lewis Hamilton who is 4th has collected overall 148 points.
As F1 is currently in a summer break, ESPN have taken a look at what would happen to the title race, if Red Bull didn't participate in the races this year.
Here is how the standings would look if Verstappen and Perez were removed from the results of the first 12 races and the points were redistributed (including for fastest laps and sprint races), as per ESPN.
