In contrast, his teammate Lando Norris is seventh in the championship. He has scored 88 points so far and is single-handedly carrying McLaren in sixth in the constructors’ championship.
McLaren were put under the spotlight on social media for their handling of the Oscar Piastri saga and how they let go of Daniel Ricciardo. Here are some of the best fan reactions on Twitter:
Daniel Ricciardo reached out to Oscar Piastri to congratulate the young Australian
Daniel Ricciardo dialed the young driver to wish him well on his McLaren journey. Piastri will be replacing Ricciardo next summer and there have been rumors of bad blood between the two Australians. However, Ricciardo put all such speculation to rest as Piastri revealed how his fellow countryman reached out and congratulated him for earning an F1 seat for the 2023 season. Piastri said:
With six races left in the season, Daniel Ricciardo’s entire fanbase is hoping for a good finish to a career that has seen extreme highs and lows equally. Ricciardo is considered one of the goofiest and most fun-loving people on the grid and everyone loves the Australian for his personality and energy.
F1 will surely miss Ricciardo next year.
