Yuki Tsunoda has hinted AlphaTauri will choose Daniel Ricciardo to drive for the team over Liam Lawson in Formula 1 next year.
AlphaTauri are yet to confirm their 2024 driver line-up but Tsunoda is looking likely to be retained in one of the seats.Lawson's impressive start to life in F1 has given Red Bull a lot to consider, as the New Zealander finished ninth at the Singapore Grand Prix to underline his credentials.
Lawson will have another chance to impress this weekend at Suzuka, a track he drove at earlier this year in Super Formula, and has made it clear he doesn't want to spend a year on the F1 sidelines.'I wouldn't be happy to go back to being reserve. Obviously, I know how hard it is to get into Formula 1 and I understand that that can be really difficult sometimes,' said the 21-year-old.
