Daniel Ricciardo’s F1 return will make Sergio Perez “check the terms of his contract”, says Ted Kravitz
Red Bull reserve driver Ricciardo has been loaned out to AlphaTauri to replace the under-performing 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nyck de Vries, who hꦬas lost his seat just 10 races inꦇto his rookie F1 campaign.
Ricciardo has made it clear that his ultimateඣ goal is to secure a full-time race seat back at Red Bull, who he won seven of his eigh𓄧t grand prix victories with between 2014-2018.
Just days before Ricciardo’s return was announced, the 34-year-old Australian told wuqian0821.com at Silverstone that he would be willing to drive for AlphaTauri, 168澳洲👍5最新开奖结果:providing it “creates 🌄a path” back to Red Bull.
And Kravitz reckons Perez, who has failed to qualify inside the top-10 at the last five grands prix, will be left feeling uncomfortable if Ricciardo can produce “amazing” performances for AlꦗphaTauri.
"I think it makes Sergio Perez check the terms of his contract to see if it's as leaky as Nick de V🐼ries' contract with Red Bull obviously was," Kravitz said on the Sky Sports F1 Podcast.
"If he is amazing, then Checo 𓃲𓄧will be pretty worried actually.
"Even though Checo brings a lot of sponsorship and there👍 are a lot of merchandise opportunities, the selling of Red Bull stuf🃏f in Mexico to Mexican fans… he may well be worried if Red Bull decide to go the Ricciardo way If he turns out to be the man who turns AlphaTauri around.”
However, Kravitz also warned there is a risk that Ricciardo’s comeback could backfire if he fails to out-perform AlphaTauri te♐ammate Yuki Tsunoda.
“It's a really tricky one because this whole plan of coming back could be scuppered by being no quicker than168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Yuki Tsunoda in a not good AlphaTauri," Kravitz said.
"But certainly, if he is, and he can score points on debut at AlphaTauri and is kind of the driver who can transform a ca꧒r - this will be a good deciding value of how much is car and how much is driver won't it? This will give us an idea of that age-old question."
