RB, Ricciardo still believes he can do excellent things

The return to F1 of Daniel Ricciardo behind the wheel of AlphaTauri currently Racing Bulls he hasn't been the luckiest so far. Especially at the beginning of 2024, the Australian driver is proving to be particularly suffering from his performance Yuki Tsunoda, both in qualifying - on the flying lap so far he has always been behind and not by a little - and in the race, with the Japanese scoring points (7th and 10th) in Australia and Suzuka, while the former Red Bull and McLaren driver did not better than twelfth place in his home GP. Nonetheless, Ricciardo still largely believes in himself, dismissing any possibility of dismissal.

“The way I feel today I think I can also extend the contract with Racing Bulls – Ricciardo's words reported by GPBlog.com –. The pleasure of driving has returned to me, obviously I don't want to race just for the sake of it, I want to deserve the seat and bring the team higher and higher. If I returned to F1 after a few months it is because I believe I can return to fighting for important positions, that I can win again. I have this belief. I don't feel like I'm in a bad situation, nor have I lost confidence in my abilities."
