If this is true it's a big relief to Checo.

RB drivers are all signed to RB, not RBR/SAT. Thatโ€™s why they can swap them around mid season so easy. The drivers donโ€™t drive for either team technically, they drive for the parent company.

I donโ€™t think Checo is safe still

[โ€“] bhmnscmm@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Very good point. I suppose with that in mind it's worse for Checo to have Tsunoda still in the RB "family".

[โ€“] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Please no. They've failed him at just about every juncture.

Not a lot of better places to go. Hopefully next year with their car being a lot closer aligned to the Red Bull car it will go better for him

[โ€“] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Fair enough.

Haas might have a seat open, I think Iโ€™d rather see him there.

[โ€“] koolkiwi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Haas is a team with zero perspective. Very much a dead end for any driver career.

[โ€“] omgarm@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago

I don't think Haas is much faster or slower.

I'm really excited for Yuki's future as this season he really has done an exceptional job with the equipment provided. If Yuki continues to impress/beats Daniel handily in the same machine I'll be a sad he isn't getting a go at a top team.

And now that Perez seems to be pulling it together, that shot is definitely not coming with RB. Maybe Merc if Hamilton retires?
