Is it possible this is a test run for DR to see if he's fit to replace Perez next season, or is that a long shot? What's Red Bull's upside for putting him at AT for half a season?

said this in another thread but I think this is more of a test for Yuki, if he beats RIC then Yuki replaces Perez next year

For sure, that would make sense too.

It sure looks like it… although I thought they gave him time till the summer break…

Me too.. I feel for de Vries. Poor guy didn't even make it a full season after finally getting his seat.

My exact thoughts. It let's them put him back in the car without the immediate risk to the primary team.

I'm not well versed in driver moves. If Danny somehow does amazing is it possible for him to move to RB and Sergio to move the AT this season? Like a driver trade?

if danny does well he goes to RBR and Perez gets dropped. They wont put Perez at AT, no point, he's too old.

Pérez is six months younger than Ricciardo
