I don’t see what red bull has to gain by keeping him the rest of this season. They should move up the next driver and get him some seat time.
Danny ric coming back soon too….
We'll have to see what they do. They could put Danny Ric(I wouldnt) in Checos seat until next year and then move Yuki or Lawson up to it. If a superstar becomes available they could give that seat to them and let Yuki/Lawson continue in the AT car.
I feel like checo and danny ric are the same person though. Theyre statistics are very similar, so I dont know if it would benefit RedBull to put Ric in a seat.

For the next 2-3 years, Does Red Bull want another superstar driver or would settle for a solid wingman such as Bottas?

RBR thinks ricc can handle the traits of their car (based on his past time with the team and the simulator). plus, helmut and christian love the guy.
they don't want another superstar. just a guy that can pick up the pieces when max has an occasional bad weekend. and checo isn't doing that.
i think it's 70/30 danny gets that seat next year. checo just seems done.

And someone that Max doesn't hate. And I would assume since they have a long history together he passes that test since he is back in the mix.

I'd like to see Lawson get a shot.

Liam will be taken care of when ricc or Yuki leave. that could be as early as next year but no later than 2025. and with stroll possibly leaving Aston Martin and Yuki as the replacement, there could be two open seats at AT.

He's still in second in the points. Ham taking himself out helped Perez with that.
They may want to try and get him to the end of the season and hope he holds on.
Also, he has some Mexican sponsors and the likelihood of him getting canned before the Mexico race would seem remote. They'd probably need Cartel security if they shitcan him before that race.

Stroll has been outscored by his teammates 484-241 in his career. The only teammate he ever outscored was Sergey Sirotkin 6-1 in 2018.
Just thought that was funny.

Checo is 100% finishing the year with RBR. I don’t feel like that’s in question.

You’re probably right but I put nothing past Darth Helmut.

I think Ric is at the point of his career where he just wants to drive a car he’s comfortable in and be a good teammate. He knows he can’t win a drivers championship but I think he wants to be on a team shooting for constructors trophy. I think that’s exactly what RBR want in a second driver to Max. They just need someone consistent and Checo isn’t that. With Merc and McLaren starting to get their cars competitive, they need consistency from their second driver next year if they want to secure constructors again

How many problems would be solved if Helmut just went away?
I liked the quote “Red Bull actually fired him but he just kept showing up anyway and no one has the energy to tell him to frick off”

He technically isn’t even part of the team. When he made that comment on “South American racers” people were furious and asked Horner WTF and he said “he is an advisor to our parent company, he has actually isn’t a part of my department so no comment” which further angered people

Christian actually reported to Helmut before Dietrich died. Not sure what the new power structure is, but he must still have a lot of power, because he made the call to hire/fire Devries.

If Danny Ric is the guy, why wouldn’t they just swap those two and get Ric extra real world time in the RB since it means nothing at this point?
