Daniel Ricciardo was very disappointed after Red Bull renewed Czech Perez for two more seasons. The Australian has decided to rejoin the Milton Keynes team, even if that’s what he believes. Others, however, do not understand that he is still in Formula 1. In this second group, what stands out Jacques Villeneuve.
As usual, the 1997 world champion didn’t bite his tongue and was very clear in his criticism of the Australian. “Why are you still in Formula 1? We’ve been hearing the same thing for the last four or five years: ‘We have to improve the car for him.’ Poor guy, I’m sorry… No, you’re in F1 and maybe you’re striving for a driver like Lewis Hamilton, who won many championships… but not for a driver who can’t achieve it, ” explained the Canadian for SkySports.
“If you can’t do it, go home and someone will succeed you. “It’s always like this in racing, it’s the pinnacle of the sport and there’s no reason to go on and look for excuses,” he concluded.
Talent forcing from below
Villeneuve is comfortable against Ricciardo, who is currently out of contract until 2025. His current one with RB ends at the end of this season and nothing is known about his immediate future. Indeed, after the first GPs of this campaign, there was speculation that he would be dropped suddenly due to poor results.
In addition, new talents from the Austrian academy will appear below. Isack Hadjar or Ayumu Iwasa together with Liam Lawson (who has already played a big role in his appearance in a race in 2023) they will achieve their dream at the expense of Ricciardo. The figure of Yuki Tsunoda, with the support of Honda, seems to be more stable in his position at RB.
