Daniel Ricciardo and McLaren will split at the end of the Formula One season after a buyout was negotiated with the Australian on the final year of his contract.
Ricciardo held the option on 2023 for his seat at McLaren but his performance has been underwhelming through 35 races. Although he did score McLaren's first Formula One victory since 2012 with a win last September at Monza, Ricciardo has been outperformed by teammate Lando Norris nearly every race weekend.
"I think for the future, what lies ahead, I am not sure yet. I am not sure yet. But we'll see. I look back on this time with McLaren, I look back with a smile. I learned a lot about myself, I think things that will help me for the next step in my career, but I think just in general in life." McLaren is widely believed to have signed F2 champion Oscar Piastri, also an Australian, for Ricciardo's seat. No announcement has been made by McLaren, but Piastri has declined a promotion to F1 with Alpine.
Ricciardo said it was difficult not to get the on-track results he desired since joining McLaren ahead of the 2021 season. His Monza victory is Ricciardo's only podium since. McLaren team principal Andreas Seidl thanked Ricciardo for his "dedication and contribution" since joining the team.
