Pirelli Tyre Test

While the major emphasis of the Spa test will be on Pirelli's blanket-free tyres, Vandoorne will benefit from getting an inside look at the new 2023 F1 vehicles. For forthcoming racing weekends, this will help him better correlate his simulator work with Aston Martin.

Helmut Marko has said that Red Bull are "reviewing the situation" at AlphaTauri, suggesting that Daniel Ricciardo may compete in the AT04 as soon as the first race after the summer break, the Dutch Grand Prix.

After the British Grand Prix in July, Daniel Ricciardo will be driving the RB19 for the first time in a Pirelli tyre test. Daniel Ricciardo has returned to Red Bull and has made a few appearances at different Grands Prix since his comeback.
