Daniel Ricciardo...

[gids73]

Is he going to replace Webber at Red Bull in 2012 (when Mark goes to Ferrari in place of Massa) or is Daniel going to drive Torro Rosso before season 2011 is over?

BTW, another great win in WSbR around the streets of Monaco on Sunday!

Daniel Ricciardo...

Is he going to replace Webber at Red Bull in 2012 (when Mark goes to Ferrari in place of Massa) or is Daniel going to drive Torro Rosso before season 2011 is over?

BTW, another great win in WSbR around the streets of Monaco on Sunday!

You're adding 1+1 and getting a window there... why don't you wait and see?

As good and as highly rated as Sebastien Vettel was by the Red Bull organisation, they still made him serve out an apprenticeship under Torro Rosso before he was allowed to drive the full RBR entry. It will be the same for Ricciardo.

There is no doubt that Daniel will drive for Torro Rosso, the only question is when. The common view is that if Buemi or Alguersuari where going to prove themselves as capable of winning Grand Prix's, they would have done so by now, so I think its fairly likely that one of them will be replaced by Ricciardo before the season is out, and then the most likely scenario is that he will drive for them again in 2012, RBR will retain Webber for probably his final year, then if Ricciardo proves himself capable, then he could be in the RBR seat in 2013.

Webber won't go to Ferrari, why would anyone go their with Alonso signed there till 2016, and clearly their number 1 driver.

Well, he is getting even worse nr.2 treatment at red Dull than what he would be getting at Ferrari.

I think he will be in for one of the Toro Rosso's by mid season. Don't know why, I just feel it in me waters.

[Nikki Katz]

There's no way he'll drop straight into Red Bull unless someone gets injured. They seem keen to keep both drivers next year, and I doubt he'd be top of the list even if they weren't.

Alguersuari had a good end to last year but hasn't made an impression at all so far. I'm pretty sure that Riccardo will be in his place next year unless things change quickly, and I think it's quite likely he'll appear before the end of this year. I think that if things haven't turned around a bit by the summer break then he'll be gone.

Toro Rosso could do what HRT did driver X is sick driver x sent email driver x

remember that redbull all so did the driver swap in 2005 Christian Klien and Vitantonio Liuzzi
2007 driver swap
2009 driver swap
2011 driver swap ?

[N4D13]

I wouldn't be surprised at all if STR dropped Alguersuari midway through this season. He's been too bad this year - and it's rather surprising, considering how he got the most out of Buemi in the last races of 2010.

[Cooper_S]

RBR or Ferrari... Mark is well suited as second driver, I can't see him in a Ferrrai for 2012, but nothing would surprise me.

[gids73]

Well, like most drivers, he has said he would love to drive for Ferrari at some stage - maybe he would be closer in times/results to Alonso than what he is to Vettel at the moment, so #2 there may not be that bad...

[steveaki13]

I don't think Red Bull would put him straight into the 1st team, but he must be expected to be placed into Toro Rosso, either next year or at mid point this season.
