New AlphaTauri CEO Peter Bayer gives Daniel Ricciardo boost in race for F1 2024 seat
AlphaTauri🐎’s driver line-up for next year is still unc﷽onfirmed.
It looked like Ricciardo and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda were guaranteed a seat for 2024 after the Australian's impressive comeback in place of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nyck de Vries.
However, Ricciardo’s injury and subsequen💫t absence has opened the door for Liam Lawson, who has imp🐼ressed Helmut Marko.
Bayer has outlined his stance on AlphaTauri's future ꧅driver ൩line-up.
"My belief is that… obviously, we cannot only dev🍒elop young drivers – we also have to be competitive,” Bayer told .
“I think, to be competitive nowadays, you need… in order to fulfil both cars, you need to hav🦩e one experienced driver and one young one. That’s really what I’m trying to achieve, you know, to have an experienced one and a young one.
“Becauꦰse then the young one will learn more from the experienced one, the experienced one will help us and, for example, Daniel helped us tremendously on setting up the car.
“So whilst we give feedback to a y🙈oung driver, the experienced one gives ꧒us feedback, and I’m convinced you need to have those two.”
AlphaTauri’s desire for an experienced driver is no surprise given their poor form since the start of 2022𝔍.
