Formula 1: Despite an up and down season, Daniel Ricciardo remains hopeful that he can recover his best form.
'The stopwatch doesn't lie' | 00:58 Yuki Tsunoda says it would be “weird” if reserve driver Liam Lawson got the nod to replace Sergio Pérez at Red Bull Racing ahead of him.
Ricciardo is also a contender, though the Australian’s candidacy appears to depend on turning in an impressive next two races with RB. “Checo might perform really, really well, and if the driver’s performing well, they don’t have a reason to change the drivers. “It’s not one of those things I can control, so I’m just focusing on what I have to do in the next few races.”PODCAST: McLaren has just one win to show for the season so far despite the last six races having been winnable with better execution.
“I’m fully focused to fully deliver. I will be here and here again next year, and that’s nothing different. I’m just fully committed to myself.”The single misstep that risks derailing RB’s season — and halting Ricciardo’s comeback momentum Pérez’s slumping form has been typical of his Red Bull Racing career, with strong season starts giving way to long fallow periods.
“Obviously there’s been a lot of circumstances as well with different sort of races, so I think it’s a little bit of everything when you are in this vicious circle. Red Bull Racing had hoped at the beginning of the year that Ricciardo’s compelling form might have made this decision a formality, but his form this year has been inconsistent.
“Obviously I’ve been in the spotlight a bit this year, Checo’s in the spotlight. Even after my good race in Montreal I said, ‘Look, I need to do another good one because you’re only as good as your last race’.
