A summer break verdict on Sergio Perez and Daniel Ricciardo's F1 futures...
Helmut Marko says Red Bull still believe Sergio Perez can “pull himself together” despite widespread reports of a potential driver swap with Daniel Ricciardo .
But with Perez managing just four points-scoring finishes since his last podium result in Miami, sensationally it was then claimed Ricciardo’s time with Red Bull not only isn’t over but that he’s in contention to take Perez’s seat after the summer break.there is a clause in Perez’s contract that allows for such a demotion, which it is being said is based on his points in the Drivers’ Championship.
But while Marko acknowledges the importance of the Constructors’ Championship, he hinted that the team isn’t ready to throw in Perez’s towel. “Any other driver would not look good against Max either. Max is in the form of his life and is still getting better.”Instead, the 81-year-old turned the spotlight back onto Ricciardo and his position without the Red Bull organisation.
