Daniel Ricciardo will make a sensational return to front-line Formula 1 racing at the upcoming Hungarian Grand Prix, with the Australian set to replace Nyck de Vries at the AlphaTauri team for the rest of the season.

Both Happy and Sad for DR. He gets a drive but I think the Haas would have been the better car for him to shine in. The AT could very well be the nail in the coffin of his F1 career.

I think AT could prove hes worthy of an RB seat. With Alex showing his worth at Williams there could be a few contenders though.

No way that will ever happen. Red bull would rather wait to grab a younger star like Leclerc or Norris. This is just a convenient way to put more pressure on Perez.

I don't think more pressure on Perez will actually produce results. If they want constructor points Red Bull might want to consider taking the bananas risk of producing a car that both their drivers can drive at full tilt.

I just don't see it happening at AT. The car is a backmarker and Yuki is not exactly a top tier benchmark. Put DR in that Williams and we might have a better chance to see something special from him.

Sincerely hope to be wrong though!
