    Ricciardo has bad luck these last few years. If Lawson performs well he might not have a seat next year.

      I don’t think you can attribute his underperformance at McLaren to bad luck. He was just not able to adapt to a difficult to drive car and his weaknesses were exposed. That is on the driver and not bad luck
