Red Bull boss clarified that contract offer to Daniel Ricciardo is not competition for Checo Pérez
Christian Horner, director of the Red Bull Formula 1 team, admitted that Australian Daniel Ricciardo will be the team’s third driver next season unless he “decides not to sign” the contract that they have offered him, and warned that this incorporation will not imply any change in the starting lineup.
Horner made it clear that the starting lineup for Red Bull will be made up of Dutch Max Verstappen and Mexican Sergio ‘Checo’ Pérez.
“Daniel’s contract is very specific, for a reason specific: we have a contract with Checo for the next two years”, said Horner.
