Formula 1 | AlphaTauri, Austin to forget for Ricciardo

Hand pain after the Sprint and race ordeal due to damage to his car

Formula 1 | AlphaTauri, Austin to forget for Ricciardo

The return of Daniel Ricciardo almost two months after his injury Zandvoort It certainly wasn't the best. The Australian driver climbed back onto theAlphaTauri, but he did not achieve a great performance, and finished his race in seventeenth position, which later became fifteenth due to the disqualifications of Hamilton e Leclerc. The former Renault driver evidently suffered damage to his car in some phases of the Grand Prix, probably due to debris collected on the track, and after the Sprint Race on Saturday he apparently had trouble getting out of the car due to pain in his wrist, having also stated that he felt better on Sunday than on Saturday. In short, it wasn't a great return for Daniel, who is now thinking about Mexico.

“The team mentioned Stroll, we were close but I don't think there was any contact – Ricciardo said in Austin, quoted by RacingNews365. I must have picked up some debris somewhere and that made my day pretty difficult, I won't lie about that. At best we are a top ten car, but when there is damage you are definitely out of the points. I told the guys that I couldn't do anything, let's say I suggested retiring and studying what happened. At that point we tried to solve the problem by putting the soft on the pit stop and the situation improved slightly."
