Daniel Ricciardo says it was 'frustrating' to 'hit pause' on his Formula 1 comeback with AlphaTauri ahead of his return to the cockpit in Austin.
Ricciardo broke his wrist in practice for Zandvoort's Dutch Grand Prix back in August, which halted his F1 return after just two races.Ricciardo sat out five race weekends while being deputised by reserve driver Liam Lawson, but will return to the wheel of AlphaTauri's AT04 at this weekend US Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas. 'It was definitely frustrating watching the past few races,' Ricciardo said.

While Ricciardo was out of action, Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda benefitted from an upgraded AlphaTauri, which has helped the former score two points in Singapore.
