This isn’t an audition for Danny Ric, I think it’s a warm up. So long as he doesn’t fail miserably, I think the RB seat is his after break.

Is Checo still a "pay" driver? I seem to remember that he brings a lot of sponsorship money with him. So they might keep the money coming in this year than maybe look to assign him as a mentor to their second team.
I read some thing last year where Horner commented along the lines of Riccardo walked away from a fight with Verstappen when he left RB years ago. So I speculate that Horner wants to see this still. Especially since he had not been in the better cars with Alpine and McLaren...he should be hungry to have a chance to win again.
