Ricciardo: “This is clearly my best chance”

Daniel Ricciardo obtained a front row on the grid of a Grand Prix for the first time this season by setting the second time in Q3 in Singapore, half a second behind the poleman Sebastian Vettel. The Australian hopes to secure a second podium after that obtained at the Hungarian GP at the Hungaroring last July and is starting to dream of victory, having scored three in 2014.

« This is clearly my best chance », recognized Daniel Ricciardo. “We thought we had a chance to play for the podium and that was confirmed with the qualifying results. It’s nice to be back on the front row, it’s been a long time (since the 2014 Chinese GP). We have made big progress since Silverstone and Budapest (Hungary). The lack of performance of Mercedes is surprising, but it’s a good surprise. »

Red Bull Racing was also delighted with the fourth position obtained by Daniil Kvyat who is ahead of the two Silver Arrows of Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.
