Being too scientific leads to 4 successive WCCs and WSCs, something which is clearly bad for the sport as it draws no end of criticism.

So I'm rooting for a non-scientific approach where drivers are paired to cause confrontation, and results are unpredictable. And that means Mercedes must sign DR.

But remember, that approach will then see him in a car that won't be as reliable, Renault will start winning titles and everyone will say that if Ricciardo was there he'd destroy their existing drivers!

Unless - Daniel has something else to offer Mercedes that differs from just on-track results?
