Ricciardo plans to play with Mercedes in Singapore

Red Bull regained performance at the Singapore Grand Prix where the team Milton Keynes has always shone, even winning the last three editions with Sebastian Vettel. However, it is still Daniel Ricciardo who showed himself to be closest to Mercedes less than two tenths behind, even if his teammate will start alongside him on the second row. If the Austrian team expected good performances on the Marina Bay circuit, this result allows it to hope for a good start for the race.

Although overtaking is difficult on this urban track, Daniel Ricciardo has already proven three times that it is possible to beat the Silver Arrows. The Australian actually believes in his lucky star. “We thought when we got here that we would have a good chance of following them in the race if we could be within two or three tenths.”, explained the Red Bull driver in the paddock of the Singapore Grand Prix. “We are actually closer than we thought and that is positive. If the start goes well, I'll try something with the strategy. I wasn't shy about trying my luck this year, but it will still be complicated on a street circuit. I hope to get a podium. »
