Daniel Ricciardo contacted by Haas over vacancy for F1 2023 driver line-up

R😼icciardo received the message from Haas team principal Guenther Steiner at the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix o🍬n July 31 ahead of the summer break,
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Ricciardo wil🦹l leave leave McLaren, it has finally been confirmed, ahead of next season and has been the subject of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:silly season rumours which he is anticipated🧜 to address at this wee♍kend’s Belgian Grand Prix.
Haas’ 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 2023 driver line-up will include Kevin Magnussen who is 𝄹contracted on a multi-year deal but Mick Schumacher’s current contract expires at the end of 2022, and his future is unc🌼ertain.
That is where Ricciardo may come in, now he is a free age𒀰nt for 2023.
The veteran Au🐻stralian had a contract with McLaren until the end of 2023 but the team reportedly told him that they intend to replace him next year with Oscar Piastri.
It is cheaper for McLaren to pay off Ricciౠardo and sign Piastri than to pay Ricciardo in 2023, it has been reported.
Alpine are also a serious option for Ricciardo.
He r🐓epresented them when🦩 the team was known as Renault.
Ricciardo is currently paid £12.2m by McLaren this season - making him the fifth-highest 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:earner on the grid. Schumacher is paid less than £1m this season so accommodating Ricciardo’s wages may be an issue fo♕r Haas.

As for Schumacher?
The son of the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:legend Michael Schumacher is in his second F1 season and came under criticism from Haas bos𒆙s Steiner for the frequency of his crashes but has since improved to score points at the British and Austrian grands prix🎃.
The dwindling number of seats for the 2023 F1 driver line🥂-up means that Haas are not yet prepared to commit to keeping Schumacher.
