Helmut Marko:

"The shareholders have made it known that it is a junior team and we have to act accordingly. The goal was that [Daniel Ricciardo] would be considered for Red Bull Racing with exceptional performances. That seat now belongs to Sergio Perez, so that plan is no longer valid."

"We have to put a young driver in there soon. That would be Liam Lawson."

Is Ricciardo not technically an academy driver?

Technically, as in 10 years ago, yes. But I dont think Marko was involved in his comeback at AlphaTauri/RB.
