McLaren said on Wednesday that they had “mutually agreed” the split with the 33-year-old Ricciardo one year before his contract was due to expire, but conceded they had been behind the move.McLaren say they’ll confirm their driver line-up for the 2023 season “in due course” but it has been an open secret in the sport that Piastri, the Formula 2 champion and Alpine reserve, will step in for the eight-time race winner Ricciardo.
McLaren team principal Andreas Seidl conceded: “There was a contract and it needed mutual agreement to terminate it early, but after discussion with Daniel we felt it was the right thing for both sides to split ways for next year. There have already been reports that Haas boss Gunther Steiner has made offers to Ricciardo to join the US-based team.
The Australian took to social media on Wednesday to admit he’s not sure about what the future will hold for him.
