Morini when I first heard the rumours around the Monaco weekend I was a little surprised, I mean they've got Danny Ric and Hulkenberg is no slouch, so I was a bit confused, but Chester's response to why Ricciardo is so important for them just made me realise just how valuable hiring Bottas could be for a season or two for a team like Renault. He'll develop their car for them, show them where they're lacking, and like Ricciardo he has the nous to be able to explain it to the technical designers in a way they can utilise and appreciate. When you think about it rationally, it's not as bonkers as it might first seem.
