An update on Daniel Ricciardo's F1 future and whether he's likely to remain at RB.
According to veteranHowever, the saving grace for Ricciardo is that he has the backing of the Red Bull boss.
Canada was encouraging for Ricciardo though as he responded to heavy criticism from 1997 world champion Jacques Villeneueve to finish in the points. “Ricciardo is 7-2 down on Tsunoda in grand prix qualifying sessions this year and slightly slower on average,” Benson wrote. “And the problem with that is that Red Bull don't rate the Japanese as a top-line driver.
“Ricciardo's performance for RB at the Canadian Grand Prix - qualifying a superb fifth and finishing in the points in eighth place despite a five-second penalty for jumping the start - was exactly what he needed after an unconvincing start to the season,” Benson added.
