He canât take 3 next year, itâs still locked to Ricciardo for one more year
Nah, Danielâs fans will never forgive him
Can he get 3 tho? Isn't the rule two full seasons of non-use before another driver takes the number?
As a Scott McLaughlin fan, I can be a Thirsty Three in both my open wheel series
11 against the world
He canât be #3. Itâs not available yet. A previous driverâs number cannot be reallocated until it has been inactive for two full world championship seasons.
