I thought that was said at some stage during the broadcast on the weekend, but not expanded on...

I was thinking AdP might be one of the few guys capable of getting a call to join one of the lead teams.
However I was assuming this would be in place of Coulthard who has been mullered by Scott. Then I thought perhaps Fabs has been limited to 'number 2'duties in recent years but that wouldn't explain his poor qualifying positions a lot of the time? |

Scott, as lead driver, has lead the setup in a direction that is fast. But is it undriveable for anyone other than him? He made every teammate in the Volvo look decidedly average too, but is that just talent, or the car being too much for anyone other than him. May also explain some of Slade's comparative lack of pace compared to other co-drivers, if the car is difficult to extract the maximum from. |

I wonder if Ludo is also moving to the US? That could be a big hit if so.
Fabs has done what was needed in order to secure a teams title, solid number two. I suppose that loyalty is rewarded with a new contract. |

Sounds bit like the Verstappen Red Bull argument vis a vis his teammates!
However Scott is a tremendous driver and it would be tough for anyone to match him on equal terms. Keeping Coulthard is good for continuity with Scott departing, and on the face of it is there anyone else the team would think suitable to replace him right now if they are already having to bring one new driver in? |

It has been mentioned that Ludo is going to the USA, to try his hand at engineering Indy cars.

No surprise that Mr Penske and Mr Cindric would pick the best apples off the tree and take them home to North Carolina.
