Daniel Ricciardo had to be pressed before praising AlphaTauri stand-in Liam Lawson as he returns to F1 action at the US Grand Prix.
AlphaTauri driver Daniel Ricciardo looks surprised in the 2023 United States Grand Prix press conference.
Having started the F1 2023 season as Red Bull’s reserve driver, Ricciardo returned to a race seat with AlphaTauri ahead of July’s Hungarian GP. Asked if he felt Lawson – set to continue in his role as reserve driver for Red Bull and AlphaTauri next season – did a good job in his absence, Ricciardo said: “Yes. One does. He did a very good job.”“In terms of him currently not having a seat next year, I think it’s one of those ones where he’s young. I think it’s not like he’s at the end of his career, he’s very much in the early part of his career, so just keep persisting, keep your head down.
