F1 | Racing Bulls, Ricciardo and Tsunoda chasing points in Melbourne

F1 Racing Bulls Australian GP – After an unhappy start to the season, due to the uncertain competitiveness of the VCARB01, Yuki Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo intend to chase the points zone in the next Australian Grand Prix, the third round of the 2024 Formula 1 world championship.

The two RB standard bearers, on the fast Albert Park street racer, intend to exploit the technical characteristics of the car to give a "stirring up" to a classification that has hitherto been deficient in terms of points and placing. An unacceptable condition considering the objectives that the team has set for this year. Ricciardo, we remember, will return to run the home race after a year's break.

Ricciardo excited for his home GP

“Well, it's race week in Australia! I'm at home, I feel great, it's hot, it's sunny, I can't wait to get on track for this third race of the season in Melbourne. I want to give a good performance. I can feel it, I can feel it flowing through my Australian veins. I can't wait, Albert Park is a fast and long circuit. We're coming, baby!"

Tsunoda wants to confirm himself in Melbourne

“Hi guys, I'm Yuki and the anticipation for arriving in Melbourne is palpable. This city, together with its fans, has always fascinated me. The track, with its fast straights and some more technical sections towards the end, offers a stimulating mix of challenges. I have pleasant memories of the last race here, last year, when I managed to score points, and I hope I can replicate this this weekend. The period between the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and the Melbourne Grand Prix was particularly intense. I dedicated time to several simulation sessions to refine my preparation and it went very well. To be honest, it's difficult to predict how we will fare on track at Albert Park, but I'm sure that if we can do everything perfectly, we will maximize our performance - that's what we will focus on and see how it goes. I will do my best and hope to get into Q3 again and score points. This is the main goal. See you on the track!”.
