So apparently Ralph Schumacher let out that he knows for certain that Danny is replacing Nyck after the summer break. I found it in a Dutch article, so a url is not much use I think.

Obviously, this is still very much rumours at this point, but I wanted to post about it anyways.

I know Nyck is underperforming massively, and have no illusion that he will be driving next year. But replacing a driver mid-season is always a bit harsh. Especially when his home-race is the next one on the calendar…

      Hulk looks decent for having taken a few years off with only a few 1-off appearances in between. It’s only been 9 months or so for Danny and he’s probably done some significant sim work during that period for RB.

      I’m optimistic. Maybe this time off is the reset he needed to get his form back.
