Daniel Ricciardo had been hoping to challenge for a Red Bull drive next season, but Sergio Perez will be staying until 2026.
Daniel Ricciardo had been hoping to challenge for a Red Bull drive next season, but the announcement of Sergio Perez staying has put paid to that for at least the next two years.
Sky Sports reporter Craig Slater questioned if this move ends Ricciardo’s hopes of returning to the ‘senior’ Red Bull team, as well as the other candidates’ hopes of becoming Verstappen’s team-mate.“I think we should say of the others that might have gone there, we know that the two fathers of Carlos Sainz and Max Verstappen, Jos Verstappen and Carlos Sainz Senior perhaps don’t get on so well.
“But I think for Max, this is a choice which he will be happy with. I don’t think he cares necessarily who his team-mate is but better the driver you know alongside you than potentially some unknown quantity.”that a Red Bull seat was his main driver behind heading back to the team’s stable prior to the announcement of Perez staying, but if a seat was not forthcoming, he would still have targets to look ahead to in the sport.
“Just being back, there’s an element that I’m just very grateful to have a second chance. But it doesn’t change.
