Guenther Steinerdirector of Haas, said he would be delighted to have Daniel Ricciardo for next season: “Have him call me…”. The team still hasn’t renewed Mike Schumacher and is looking for a new driver to partner with Kevin Magnussen. And the Australian has already responded.
He does not want to know anything about the proposal that comes from the Haas team. Even though she’s the only one he has right now. “To be honest, no”, he has said in statements that he collects ‘Viaplay’.
“Everything that has happened this year with the McLaren situation… it has been difficult to prepare for that, but we have put a plan in place,” said the still McLaren driver, who will lose his position next year. His replacement will be the young Oscar Piastri, now Alpine’s third driver.
Ricciardo wants to switch off to come back stronger: “Right now I’m just trying to prepare myself for long-term success. So next year will look different.”
“But really I’m just trying to prepare to return to the front off the grid and fight for victories, which I know I can do”, closes the still Formula 1 driver.

During the United States Grand Prix, Ricciardo left some statements that show that he can’t take it anymore in the ‘Grand Circus’: “When you think it can’t get any worse, it does.”
“I don’t know how I keep going because… it’s painful to fall short. I’m not happy with that qualifying. We were struggling a lot with the rear of the car and we had some scares in the first sector,” said the Australian.
Is Schumacher the only option?
Ricciardo has rejected Haas and the team remains without a driver. Time is running out. Will they finally renew Mick Schumacher? despite the criticism that has been launched in recent times?
