Ricciardo appears to be taking over. Still waiting for an offical source.

    Can definitely see this as a comparison test for Perez’s seat. Now you can see whose better in the same machinery. Has some simulator work brought Dani back to old form, can he wrestle with the straddling alpha, or will yuki show he has what it takes?? Also yuki now has 1.5 seasons in this car against Daniel’s year in a McLaren and some simulator work on the Redbull. If true interested to see how it all plays out, this will either be the last nail in Daniel’s racing career’s coffin or the first stepping stone to his return

      Imagine Red Bull is Verstappen and Ricciardo again in 2024. It took them 6 years to figure out they fucked up by letting him go.

        Which is what makes it even funny, because he left RB for Renault because he knew the team was becoming “Verstappen’s team” and didn’t want to play second fiddle. Just to come back and definitely play second fiddle
