Daniel Ricciardo can still stay at McLaren

Daniel Ricciardo will get two more Grands Prix at McLaren, after which his contract will expire. However, team boss Andreas Seidl hinted that the Australian driver could stay with McLaren next year. We are talking about the contract of the reserver, if such an option is interesting for Riccardo himself.

“We have not discussed this issue yet, but usually in the winter we are busy with the selection of a reserve pilot,” the Spanish press was quoted as saying Andreas Seidl. – For the past few years we shared a reserve pilot with another team, but now we have no disagreements with Daniel. It is possible that he will be our third rider in 2023.”

There have been active rumors in the paddock lately that Ricciardo is going to sign or has already signed a contract for a third Mercedes driver. Given that McLaren uses the German automaker’s power plants, it is quite possible that Daniel will combine the role of reservist at Mercedes and McLaren.
