Carlos Sainz is poised to replace Sebastian Vettel at Ferrari and Daniel Ricciardo is set to replace the Spaniard at McLaren. McLaren have been chasing Ricciardo for some time and his signing is a coup. Could Vettel’s Ferrari frustration lead to retirement from F1? Sainz, who previously drove for Toro Rosso and Renault before moving to McLaren last year, is likely to view the move as an opportunity to prove himself as a top-line driver. He excelled in his first season with McLaren last year and his strong race performances have earned him the call-up from Ferrari.
