Jacques Villeneuve gave a scathing critique of Daniel Ricciardo's career in Formula 1 and questioned why a strong midfield team like Alpine would want to sign the Australian.
Ricciardo is an eight-time race winner and has plenty of experience across spells with HRT, Red Bull, Renault and McLaren. But his career has stalled somewhat in recent seasons, especially with his current team with whom he has struggled to fully fit in.
Difficulties getting to grips with his McLaren car have led to largely underwhelming performances and results, despite his best efforts. And although his experience and race craft are unquestioned by many, the Aussie may find it tough to secure a seat for next year.
