This is starting to get embarrassing for Checo. I thought people were exaggerating how precarious his position was but if he keeps performing like this RB might actually be forced to take action.
Imagine if RB had an actual competitor, Checo couldn’t support Max at the front at all if he keeps going like this.
I really don’t think Yuki would be an improvement. He’s been inconsistent and his highs haven’t exactly been amazing. They’d be better going for Riccardo or the Hulk or Sainz imo.
As odd as it sounds, Sainz is too good. RBR doesn’t need another driver who can challenge for the win. That only creates friction. That means that Sainz is not a good option in my opinion.
Ricciardo is apparently too slow when driving the sim, much slower than Perez.
I think Hulk is decent enough, but also realistic enough not to start drama within the team.
Where was it said that Ricardo is slow on sim? Just never came across such info? (not doubting ur comment just want to see where to look for such info)

Insane how great Max has been running it’s really overshadowed how poorly Checo has been
Perez was leading the pack on a damp track. It was a bad call to put him at the front. And the gap between him and tenth shows it.
Yuki to RB please

My bet is on Hulkenberg.

Amongst others.
Obviously no real “hard” data, but the rumours were certainly strong.
Thanks, that was a good read. Horner did seem to suggest Daniel was improving but who knows.
Ricciardo must be grinning
When is Ricciardo not grinning? 😁
That lad deserves an emoji of his own!
Makes you wonder how fast the racing point actually was in 2020 lol
