Ricciardo Replaced by Lawson at Red Bull

Daniel Ricciardo's inconsistent performances this season have led to his replacement by Liam Lawson for the remainder of the 2024 F1 season. Christian Horner, Red Bull's team principal, cited Ricciardo's inability to consistently deliver high-level performances as the primary reason for his dismissal. Despite flashes of his former prowess, such as strong showings in Miami and Montreal, Ricciardo's overall performance did not meet the team's expectations. Red Bull had initially hoped Ricciardo could be a potential replacement for Sergio Perez, whose future also remains uncertain. While Ricciardo has been offered an ambassadorial role at Red Bull, there are other opportunities being explored, including a potential move to Supercars in Australia.
