If this is true it's a big relief to Checo.
- RB drivers are all signed to RB, not RBR/SAT. That’s why they can swap them around mid season so easy. The drivers don’t drive for either team technically, they drive for the parent company.
  I don’t think Checo is safe still
  
  Very good point. I suppose with that in mind it's worse for Checo to have Tsunoda still in the RB "family".

Please no. They've failed him at just about every juncture.
- Not a lot of better places to go. Hopefully next year with their car being a lot closer aligned to the Red Bull car it will go better for him
  
  Fair enough.
  
  Haas might have a seat open, I think I’d rather see him there.
- I'm really excited for Yuki's future as this season he really has done an exceptional job with the equipment provided. If Yuki continues to impress/beats Daniel handily in the same machine I'll be a sad he isn't getting a go at a top team.
  
  And now that Perez seems to be pulling it together, that shot is definitely not coming with RB. Maybe Merc if Hamilton retires?
