F1 News…
"Daniel Ricciardo is an F1 driver once again, as Red Bull have sensationally swapped the struggling Nyck de Vries for the returning Australian racer at AlphaTauri."
The alphaTauri is a turd of a car this year and not sure what Daniel can achieve with it !….still has to be better than sitting on the pit wall every race 👍🏻

David what I’ve done in the past is sign into my Now TV account, then press I want to cancel my deal, after 2 refusals and no more , they should offer you a better deal. I’ve done it many times but no more than 2 refusals 👍🏻 Thanks Bob. I'll stick with my present deal for now - it's just part of living these days - no fixed price for anything. I pay £4 each for NOW cinema and entertainment which I am happy with but I bet someone will be paying less! Hopefully I'll get a better deal on Sport later in the year. Bob, I have just gone through the cancel process and accepted a 6 month deal for £19.99 per month which I am pleased with to watch Sport which for me is the F1 and golf majors. |

He was saying on Saturday last he was enjoying what he was doing. Going into that car means he can’t achieve anything other than look second best. I thought he would be in the background looking for Perez to be removed. |

Well done …they don’t want to loose business and £19.99 seems the normal deal. I did get a £17.99 p/m deal in December last year for 6 months ..sort of out of season offer. I did go for it and watch old F1 races and interviews until the season started. |

Think all drivers are happiest behind the wheel but do feel the car is rubbish, which is odd as the sister team as the knowledge to build a winning car 🤔 |

I know that team is overseen by RB just as other teams are overseen by other bigger teams …. Can’t be budget cos points equals massive rewards. We could question why they run them Al all….. I can’t see how Daniel will be that happy . He’s been in far better positions and binned them. Strange move. |

Red Bull won't want to lose Perez this season because of his championship points - they will want #1 and #2 in the driver's championship. This way they can see if Daniel is a suitable replacement for Sergio for 2024 season. |

What I should have said was Daniel will likely be waiting for Perez’s seat for next year .. Sergio is suffering just now but his recovery drives are pretty good and illustrates how good the RB car is. At the top level though and in that car he should be winning or second every race just as he was early season. |
