F1 boss reveals Daniel Ricciardo replacement deadline for Monaco GP
McLaren F1 boss Zak Brown gave Daniel Ricciardo a deadline to perform before considering replacing him with another driver during his final season with the team. Ricciardo was eventually replaced by Oscar Piastri after failing to meet team expectations or match Lando Norris’s performances. Brown revealed that Ricciardo had until the 2022 Monaco Grand Prix to prove himself but was eventually replaced at the end of 2022. Despite winning the 2021 Italian Grand Prix, Norris’s more consistent performances led to the decision to bring in Piastri. Piastri’s success has been evident, with six grand prix wins and an impressive lead in the drivers’ standings.
