So apparently Ralph Schumacher let out that he knows for certain that Danny is replacing Nyck after the summer break. I found it in a Dutch article, so a url is not much use I think.
Obviously, this is still very much rumours at this point, but I wanted to post about it anyways.
I know Nyck is underperforming massively, and have no illusion that he will be driving next year. But replacing a driver mid-season is always a bit harsh. Especially when his home-race is the next one on the calendar…
Yeah I don’t put much stock into this rumor of Ricciardo coming back to alpha tauri
but Riccardo being slow was rumored earlier in the season and since they say he’s majorly improved

Well, it seems this one was true
