Daniel Ricciardo contacted by Haas over vacancy for F1 2023 driver line-up

Ricc꧃iardo received the message from Haas team principal Gu🅘enther Steiner at the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix on July 31 ahead of the summer break,
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ricciardo will leave leave McLaren, it has finally been confirmed, ahead of next season and has been the subject of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:silly season rumours which he is antic🙈ipated to address at this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix.
Haas’ 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:F1 2023 driver line-up will include Kevin Magnussen who is contracted on a multi-year deal but Mick Schumacher’s current contract expires at the end of 2022, and his🐭 future is uncertain.
That is wh🧔ere Ricciardo may come in, now he is a free agent for 2023.
The veteran Australian had a contract with McLaren until the end of 2023 but the t🐲eam reportedly told him that they intend to replace him next year with Oscar Piastri.
It is cheaper for McLaren to pay off Ricciardo ✨and sign Piastri than to pay Ricciardo in ⛎2023, it has been reported.
Alpine are also a serious option for Ricciardo.
He represented them when the team wa൲s known as Renault.
Ricciardo is currently paid £12.2m by McLaren this season - making him the fifth-highest 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:earner on the grid. Sc✤humacher is paid less than £1m this season so accommodating Ricciardo’s wages may be an issue for Haas.

As for Schumacher?
The son of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:legend Michael Schumacher is in his second F1 season and came under criticism 🌸from Haas boss Steiner for the frequency of his crashes but has since improved to score points at the Britis🅷h and Austrian grands prix.
The dwindling number of seats for the 2023 F1 driver line-up means that Haas are not yet prepareꦺd to commit to keeping Schumacher🍸.
