What about Haas? They started out good, then Grosjean had his 'moments' with Ericsson and finally gets a good result and they seem to be back where they should have been; just an idea.

Horner said in Formula 1 Paddock Pass (something or other) to Will Buxton that Ricciardo had been offered exactly the same deal as Max and exactly the same status. I think it was the pre-race edition.

Does that include all that ‘special love’ from Dr Marko?

Doubt it, Dr Marko is a rule unto himself.

Marko is a pretty accurate assessor of talent however.

With Grosjean's performance so far this season, his seat must be under consideration.

I rate Grosjean and I don't particularly blame him for the accident, but how long can you afford to hang on to a guy who has so many mishaps?

There's absolutely no way of knowing that. Currently, McLaren are 7th in the WCC, with 48 points, just one point behind Force India, while Torro Rosso are 8th with a meager 19 points.

Max has had two retirements, Bahrain and Azerbaijan and was classified 16th in today's British GP; the same number of retirements as Alonso.

Toro Rosso's chassis has never been as good as Red Bulls, and Red Bull was 1.5 seconds faster than McLaren at the British GP with the same engine, on the very short lap at the Red Bull Ring it also was a full second between Red Bull and McLaren and Gasly was 2 tents faster than Alonso there

Indeed but without the Honda in the back end of the RB cars, we will never know.

Shame Danny won't be going to Merc. Seeing him chase down the top four, but not being able to challenge due to the power deficit, must have been frustrating. He deserves a shot at the title

Was there ever any chance of him going to Merc? They've got Bottas playing rear gunner for Lewis.

Bottas actually is doing better than his results suggest. But Lewis can’t go on forever and that is probably why Danny was linked to Merc

Obviously Mercedes-AMG would trip over themselves to sign the Dutch superstar Max Verstappen! A true prodigy!

On the other hand, "Dan the Man" could be considered the next Gerhard Berger. The occasional top 3 position in WDC showing consistency but not the excitement and fan adulation a true prodigy (such as the Dutch superstar with crowds of orange) can command?

Here's a photo of Danie Ricciardo with a Fender Squier Strat, whether he can play it or not, I don't know.

It was apparently gifted him by Tom Delonge of the Angels and Airwaves. Also was in Blink 182. Danny is an avid music fan but I dont think he plays music.

From an F1.com interview
Quote:
Q: Apart from driving a Formula 1 car, what is your favourite buzz?
Daniel Ricciardo: Live music. I am a frequent concert goer. Personally, I am brilliant at playing air guitar! (Laughs)
