Ricciardo rumoured to replace Nyck de Vries after summer break (feddit.nl)

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...

This rumour is in complete opposition to the one posted recently that said "Ricciardo was too slow in the simulator for the Red Bull car and would prefer not to enter half way through a season and play catch up getting to grips with the Alpha Tauri"

Silly season is almost upon us!

Also just to remember everyone saying de Vries isn't fast enough - Gasly in Red Bull and Albon in Red Bull were both deemed too slow, but have performed well since.

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
