McLaren boss Zak Brown discusses replacing Daniel Ricciardo with IndyCar ace Colton Herta

McLaren chief Zak Brown has discussed the prospect of signing IndyCar star Colton Herta amid speculation over the future of Daniel Ricciardo.

The American was given the chance to drive the team's 2021 Formula 1 car in a test at Portimao last week. Herta said afterwards that it was "a lot of fun" and "really special", before adding that he felt he was fast enough to achieve his F1 dream.

And reports suggested that McLaren were also pleased with what they saw. As a result, speculation suggests Herta will be near the front of the queue if the team decides to replace Ricciardo.
