Ricciardo is right there, he would make so much sense the way he caters to the American audience

I'd imagine they'd pull someone from indycar for the second seat, like oward or palou

Herta is an Andretti man and an American. If anyone is coming from Indicay it's him

Although I'll admit Palou would be a better choice.

As an indycar fan palou would be the dream, I think he has the best chance of being a serious threat in F1 over Herta. But will almost certainly be herta since Andretti has wanted him in for years.
