I really don’t think Yuki would be an improvement. He’s been inconsistent and his highs haven’t exactly been amazing. They’d be better going for Riccardo or the Hulk or Sainz imo.
As odd as it sounds, Sainz is too good. RBR doesn’t need another driver who can challenge for the win. That only creates friction. That means that Sainz is not a good option in my opinion.
Ricciardo is apparently too slow when driving the sim, much slower than Perez.
I think Hulk is decent enough, but also realistic enough not to start drama within the team.
Where was it said that Ricardo is slow on sim? Just never came across such info? (not doubting ur comment just want to see where to look for such info)

Yuki’s been driving a dead bird on wheels though, imo
My bet is on Hulkenberg.

Amongst others.
Obviously no real “hard” data, but the rumours were certainly strong.
Thanks, that was a good read. Horner did seem to suggest Daniel was improving but who knows.
