Daniel Ricciardo is reportedly Red Bull’s No 1 option if they opt to dispense with Sergio Perez in 2024.
Ricciardo made a sensational return to Formula 1 this season with Red Bull’s sister team AlphaTauri, replacing the underperforming Nyck de Vries.
An injury has curtailed Ricciardo’s comeback - and opened the door for Liam Lawson to impress - but the veteran Aussie has been confirmed for AlphaTauri’s line-up next season too.: “Sergio Perez is under pressure at Red Bull, having scored only a little over half the number of points his team-mate Max Verstappen has mustered, the Mexican trailing by 177 points despite having what is comfortably the best car in the field.
“Sources suggest Ricciardo would be Red Bull’s favoured driver to replace Perez if required either mid-season or at the end of 2024 campaign.”
