Daniel Ricciardo: “Tighter tomorrow”

The best of the rest behind the two Silver Arrows this Friday in Spa, Belgium, will have been Daniel Ricciardo. Title holder in the Ardennes, he twice placed his Red Bull behind the Mercedes by Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, but above all look in the mirrors in anticipation of qualifying.

"It'll probably be tighter tomorrow, admits the Australian. The gap with the cars behind should narrow, but let's wait and see. Hopefully we can maintain these positions. It would be good to be a little faster on soft tires, so we are going to work this evening, like every team. »

Ricciardo, who suffered a scare in the afternoon in the Raidillon de l'Eau Rouge, his RB11 sliding, believes that a result identical to that of free practice 2 would be excellent for his team, which is waiting improvements from Renault.
