    You know I had not even thought about that. I love Piastri, he is doing something awesome with McLaren, but part of me would love to see a smiling Ricciardo back on the podium. Could Dani be winning races if still at McLaren?

      It’s really hard to say. A lot of people think he’s past it, but he did have that flash of brilliance at Monza even when the car wasn’t a front-runner, so who knows!

        Totally agree. It would be interesting to see if he’d be to Lando like Checo to Max, or if he’d be up there fighting for wins

          That’s because he was still under contract, right? So presumably if they hadn’t signed Piastri then they’d still have Ricciardo as their driver.
