Red Bull has implied Sergio Perez’s position is not under threat while he remains second in the F1 championship and it has no plans to promote Daniel Ricciardo Full story ⬇️
Horner continued: “If you look at his pace in the last stint, he was right there.
“It’s frustrating for him that he’s having to fight back all of the time, but he’s just got to sort his qualifying out on the Saturday and as a team, we’ll do our best to support him on that.” Given Perez’s weak qualifying performances, the significance of reserve driver Ricciardo’s Silverstone three-day tyre test aboard the RB19 this week has been thrust into the spotlight.
But Horner reckons there is no plan for eight-time GP winner Ricciardo to return to the frontline with Red Bull. He said: “It’s going to be great to see him back in a Red Bull car and seeing what he can do, where he's at. Both on pace and mentally, physically and to get his feedback on this car as well.
“I think it's a good opportunity for him to get back behind the wheel of a car that's just won the British Grand Prix. Read Also:
