Despite the possibility they could lose out to other teams, RB are unwilling to rush into a driver contract decision.
RB boss Laurent Mekies has said the team is in no rush to sort the future of either Yuki Tsunoda or Daniel Ricciardo despite them both being out of contract this year.
“It’s race eight, we are working, we are still focused, we are still in that phase of the year where we are trying to understand what our drivers need, trying to tweak the car to what they need, trying to create an environment for them to perform at their best. The latest rumour has Tsunoda linked with Haas but when asked if the team’s patience could cost them either driver, Mekies was not concerned of that possibility.
As to how much input he has, the 47-year-old said he knows his objective is to make drivers ready to race for Red Bull.
