McLaren F1 Daniel Ricciardo

DANIEL RICCIARDO sat down with Express Sport to discuss the current state of affairs in F1.

"He got to the top, but as quickly as he got there, he got knocked back down. "I'm working my a** off with the team to make improvements and get the car right and back to the front where it belongs. Ricciardo previously insisted that he was committed to seeing out his McLaren contract, which runs to the end of next season, and directly addressed speculation with a statement on social media last month. "Personally, I like Pierre Gasly," he told Express Sport. "For the record, he’s not the only driver I like. Despite having driven alongside dark horses such as Esteban Ocon and Nico Hulkenberg in the past, Ricciardo believes that Gasly is deserving of the 'most underrated' label. The McLaren star threw his backing behind AlphaTauri's Pierre Gasly, who has worked hard to restore his reputation after a failed spell with Red Bull in 2019.
