IMPROVE OR MOVE? Opinions on the Daniel Ricciardo Rumours
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 апр 2024
- We've been here once already, haven't we? Despite getting his new chassis and comprehensively destroying Yuki in China, there is still that shadow looming over Daniel Ricciardo. The Race saw the bigger picture within the Red Bull setup, and it's agreeable that Red Bull wants its new guys in, so someone or something has to give, right?
Could this really be the end for Danny Ric? Or will he be able to find something somewhere else unlike last time?

As much as i find Ricciardo funny and charming, how long is he going to team-surf and ride on his Red Bull era reputation? it's been 6 years now and he is 34 years old - 35 in July. if he cant perform this year, they should 100% boot him and let a younger driver in. i'll keep saying it - we can't just keep recycling from the same pool of 20-25 f1 drivers forever... we need fresh faces! Ricciardo had his chance by now ...more than most will get
Théo Pourchaire should get the seat
So that's the Goatifi out as well then? 😱
My exact feelings about this. I love Daniel Ricciardo, he is a great guy. But there is the word "In F1 you are only as good as your latest race" and lets face it, Ricciardo has had some really bad years. And it is not going to get better and at some point everyone has to accept that we dont get the 2014 Ricciardo anymore.
This is a big part of the reason why F1 should allow Andretti in and should try to get a 12th team on the grid as well. Especially if they're going to extend points down to 12th place (which I am also in favor of).
@@rars0n Christ are you delusional Andretti fanboys squealing like stuck pigs. Nothing wrong with the number of teams right now Ricciardo just needs putting out to pasture
Danny Ric is like Rene Arnoux. In his day, he was ultra fast and won. By the end, he was in the way and just not coming to terms with the machinery.
Arnoux still gave us the almighty withering putdown by James Hunt.
Arnoux didn’t like turbo cars. Ricciardo clearly can’t take to ground effect cars.
@@briansergeant It wasn't just ground effect cars he was out of his depth before them at McLaren. He's washed that's it that's all it is.
@@briansergeant Arnoux only won in turbo cars... Ricciardo hasn't been fast through two entirely different formulas now. My take is that he can't take to cars that aren't Neweymobiles.
@@F1jonesyeah but he was decent at Renault
Kinda surprised that Endurance racing doesnt come up as an option for him
Supercars
"Journeyman Jenson Button" Spicy take that may actually be true
To be fair to JB he did manage to get something solid towards the end.
@@AidanMillwardthat’s the thing. Dani thinks he’s gonna do just that, stick it out until 26 and PRAY the contract he signs is practically a guaranteed championship with a little luck. The problem is that will NEVER happen again.
I think "Journeyman David Coulthard" would be better since Button did win a WDC.
@@danielhenderson8316 DC only drove for 3 teams in a 15 season career - 2 at Williams, 9 at McLaren, 4 at Red Bull - so there's no way he could be classed as a journeyman.
@@AidanMillward: I remember Button beating Hamilton in the championship in 2011, which few people expected to ever happen.
F2 graduate list is stacked and it's a free untouched buffet.
Vesti, Pouchaire and Lawson have effectively shown they deserve a shot to prove themselves.
They're going to start losing them to Indycar once Prema establishes its F2 to Indy pathway. Why trundle around at the back of the Monaco GP in an uncompetitive when you could go for the gold at Indy? It's a no-brainer, and the talent pools between F1 and Indy are equivalent at the moment.
@@flyingphoenix113 But none of the cars are Hispania kinds of uncompetitive anymore. Superspeedway racing is dangerous and on road courses, Indycars are no faster than F2. By all means Indycar is a good series, but it's a lot of hard work to maybe get half a result every now and then! (Nearly all long-term Indycar drivers have been seriously injured on a superspeedway or oval crash at some point haven't they, unless I'm mistaken?)
@@flyingphoenix113yeah, pourchaire and illot were in the indycar race at long beach so it’s already happening
Equating Stroll rearending Riccardo to one the goofiest moves in modern wrestling was a superb comparison.
It’s just never-ending pain to be a Daniel Ricciardo fan
Ask a Valentino Rossi fan. The agony has been going on for years!
If you're Danny Ric fan for tge sake of being Danny Ric fan, I feel you.
If you're Danny Ric fan but taking a dig on Lando Max Yuki etc etc when given opportunity, these are unbearable af, and the worst, they're the majority. Not even the best Aussie on the grid ffs.
RB Visa is not a good car he tested well in the redbull and got P4 at Mexico in the Alpha Tauri new chassis seems a bit better last race piston strategy errors and accidents have cost him...
@@gerardcrabb4556 But then Daniel qualified a respectable 12th in China but fell back 3 places, in front of Yuki who gained 3 places in the first few laps. What happened there?
@@bulversteher Daniel started on medium tyres and Yuki started on soft...
If he’s done by the end of this year, Ricciardo will be in Supercars at DJR.
He will be this generation’s Jean Alesi. Fast, touted as a champion at one point, but always in the right team at the wrong time.
Full time Supercar drive is highly unlikely. With the exception of a possible one-off Bathurst appearance or maybe Le Man drive, he'll just retire.
I don't think Danny could handle a supercar drive tbh. It would be really stretching his driving ability.
Ricciardo will be better at this stage of his life behind a microphone than behind a F1 wheel
No. Have heard him speaking in the real world? He doesn't have the eloquence and wit to be a pundit.
They call it color commentary in the usa. You only need a popular personality to be successful, Ricardo is very popular in the usa.
Doesn't matter what he's behind, he just needs to be not in front of Lance Stroll
@@johnpetith5523 Palmer did a video , daniel was like 1 mm from hitting the mclaren in front lol and ALONSO is the who reason that even happened, he locked his brakes and almost hit guy in front and then piastre slowed to avoid alonso aand danny was already kissing pisatrys bumper then lance hit danny ..
I feel like it's very generous to say Ricciardo would have scored points in China. He had to stop again whilst everyone else was going to the end. He had next to no chance. He'd have got jumped on the restart and then had to pit. If anything Yuki was the more likely to score had he not been Magnussen'd. Welcome to Alpha Tauri strategy.
The only weekends Ricciardo has beaten Tsunoda are Hungary, Mexico (Tsunoda grid penalty for Monza DNS) and China (Tsunoda never raced there, Piastri struggled similarly on his first visit to the track).
Miami will be telling as Yuki has actually raced there more than Daniel, so similar to China (minus about an extra decade).
Many people seem to overlook that had Yuki not have to start from the back in Mexico 2023, he would have qualified right up there with Ricciardo and likely have beaten him in the race. Before his unfortunate coming together with Piastri he wasn't too far off Ricciardo, despite having started right at the back.
So I've always held a theory that Ricciardos troubles began with the possible move to Ferrari
When Ferrari were opting to replace Seb I believe they will have looked at many options including Sainz and I think Danny Ric.
Now how far those conversations went nobody will confirm for now but I suspect they were in a place that Ricciardo felt he was going to be given the nod and off back of that he made moves to break from Renault who were then quite frustrated to find he was leaving so soon. But when the move to Ferrari didn't happen and Sainz was chosen Ricciardo felt need to move on to save face almost and taking Sainz vacated seat felt the best choice even as a sideways move.
Of course it's just a theory but it's my explanation as to why he would take a side way move when things looked good at Renault for team and driver especially in one where they were building around him and he had been a key signing for them - things also started going downhill for Renault after losing Danny and it was a divorce both parties in hindsight might regret
I don't recall any serious Ferrari offer? At the time, Ferrari most likely preferred Sainz as he would be a clear number two and were probably (ironically) concerned that Ricciardo would be too fast and challenge Leclerc? Mercedes also passed on free agent Ricciardo in 2019 while they were giving Bottas one year deals, again this might be because they thought Ricciardo would be too fast *rather than* too slow to be a Mercedes driver?
@@TassieLorenzo your reasoning is likely why Ferrari didn't pursue it further. But I think they reached out and based on early enquiries or conversations Danny seemed to have believed it was a going to happen.
Nope. Pretty sure there were rumours, of which Danny would've heard the bulk of, that Renault were going to pull out of F1 so he had to jump to McLaren to keep a seat at all (he felt). Renault turned into Alpine but it was a confusing time and Danny didn't know what was going on.
Yup, dani should have stayed longer at Renault imo,
They were building around him. Renault sure were surprised. Then I thought he'd do well at Mclaren.
I was a bit gutted to be fair.
Great video. Thanks for not being one of the hundreds of channels besides the race that’s hot garbage.
Good bunch of lads over there. I think most of the criticism they get is cos some people aren’t hearing what they want to hear.
@@AidanMillward ah I meant that besides the race most of the other channels are clickbait garbage, but that I was happy to find one that wasn’t
Innit, an f1 channel WITHOUT clickbait titles is a rare thing !
Hooray for AM 👌@@8020drummer
Nice to see that you're an F1 fan!!
I took a break halfway through to watch a Danny Ric dive bomb pass compilation.
Oh three cars in one braking zone Danny. I miss you!
Dear god I show up for a video and it's already got 4 bot comments, man that's depressing. Anyway, this seems like an interesting watch
Edit- I think he's gone. He'll finish the season then Lawson will come in, or something like that. It's a shame, at one point in his career I thought he was for sure a future title contender, but he lost Red Bull to Verstappen, left a decent situation at Renault (who knows how that team might've turned out) and fucked it at McLaren. Ah well.
Didn’t realise Bottas even had 4 fans.
I dont think that Ricciardo will finish the season. I think there is no "IF" anymore, more of a "when" when it comes to Lawson replacing Ricciardo. And if it is clear that Ricciardo will not drive for 2025, why keep him in the seat? Ricciardos purpose was to put pressure on Perez and, if Perez gets problems again, replace him at Red Bull. And this will 100% not be the case, currently Perez is driving solid and Ricciardo not so much.
I guess it will happen rather soonish that Lawson replaces Ricciardo, simply to give Lawson more time to learn.
Tbf… alpine wasnt going up. He should have taken the indy drive with mclaren back then, if it was actually offered.
You compared the honey badger with JB? JB had a WDC.
Fact is, and contrary to popular cliches, some drivers do forget how to go fast. In fact, at some point they all do eventually. Ricciardo is one now.
One more reason why we need more teams
OMG - the team name was FANTASTIC... :)
Good shout-outs to The Race, good to see a quality RUclipsr recognising quality punditry. 👍 Autosport going down the tube a bit, and Sky being a little too UK-Centric at times has really skyrocketed The Race, to the point where it offers the best quality coverage to be honest.
Autosport is a sad shadow of what it was when Roebuck was there.
Liam deserves a ride whether that is Danny's seat or another. Its the age old potential vs proven commodity.
Lawson has the potential to be great. Riccardo isnt all of a sudden pick it up that much. So give Liam a chance. If he fails he fails but i doubt he will do much worse than Danny
Lawson has been the only guy since 2023 that has actually got the better of Tsunoda as well. Him winning on SF debut should have maybe told people how good he was; to contrast to Pourchaire's first round (finished 18th.)
@@palm92 Lawson did not impress in F2. He had 2 season there he finished 1pt ahead of Logan his team mate in 2022. In SF he seems to have improved though it was tight among top3 there.
I seriously don't want Lawson to be the next Drugovich (Has Drugovich ever had an FP Session in F1?)
@@Romit12 I believe he has.
at least the porn bots would not drive into the back of another racer than blame everyone but itself
I've seen comparable poundings on x-rated sites...
@@Argosh Dude rear-ended the guy so hard his back end flew up in the air.
@@TheFoggyjones well, I've seen some quite impressive movement from a pair of cheeks being clapped. And I don't mean the ones above the neck.
whoever was behind Ricciardo was going to hit him, he'd only just managed to not hit the car in front and his nose was under the rear wing when Stroll hit him. No one on earth has a reaction time of 0.
@@M1ggins mate, if you have a drivers license and truly think reacting to that scenario is beyond you I kindly ask you to give it back before someone gets hurt.
This is neither the first time, nor will it be the last time that Lance Stroll takes a nap at the wheel.
He had over a second to react. If he had been paying attention.
He wasn't.
He crashed.
No one else did.
If daddy Lawrence were to axe Sir Lancelot, pretty sure Tsunoda would get that seat well before Danny Ric
The Moneybadger can go throw rocks in DTM.
DTM is too political for Danny. He doesn't have the awareness to play those games.
@@billbreze795 GT Masters it is then
Not performed since his Renault days, unfortunately he has been a major disappointment at RB Visa, can't see him lasting much longer.
Danny Ric doesn’t have the minerals to command a top drive so it’s somewhere like Williams or Haas or maybe if he could get into Sauber. Unless he gets into Red Bull he surely can’t stay in Visa Bulls for long since it’s meant to be a team for RB juniors.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: people just need to accept that he's not as good as he used to be.
I consider myself a Ricciardo fan. He's a great person to have in the sport for his personality, and in his day he was a truly special driver.
But a lot of fans of Daniel online (I'd suspect probably a lot of them are kids who don't really have much common sense), are extremely toxic and downright delusional. Guys, just accept he's not that good anymore.
A post can't be made about Lando on social media without a slew of Ricciardo fanboys going "wElL dAnNy gOt A wIn So He'S bEtTeR".
Ricciardo isn't the slowest guy in F1 by far, and he's a solid marketing asset (and a great guy) for Redbull. So I'm not saying he doesn't deserve a seat, nor that he won't get a seat. But people need to accept that he's been beaten fair and square by his teammates on a pretty consistent basis since leaving Renault. Nothing wrong with that; Norris is an incredible talent and so is Yuki.
Ricciardo might as well lay some money down at triple eight engineering to pay for a third Camaro. This could possibly bring some much needed attention to Supercars.
I'm sure Supercars even did a promo with him a while ago? Or am I mixing it up with the one I know that Checo did?
Thats what Ive been saying for 2 years
@@johannessamuelsson6578Pretty sure that was Checo doing a ride swap with the Aussie Red Bull team at Albert Park.
@@johannessamuelsson6578 You've got it right! He drove the then new Holden Sandman around Sandown a few years ago.
I have never understood how he kept getting the seats he did.. constantly underperforming at whatever team he was at.. he seems like a nice bloke .. but Nice blokes don't cut it sometimes.. Land Norris must be seething that Daniel got that McClaren victory...
Well Norris should have been faster that weekend then
It is forgotten in this that he went to Renault, comfortably beat Hulk - who was already there - then easy beat Ocon. Scored podiums, and actually got about all you could out the car. But he wasn't winning like a red bull so obviously it's just his fault. No excuse for McLaren years, that was painful but Renault was not a failure. Just possibly not a great move, but that is a different story.
@@MrSniperfox29 I am 100% sure that if the McLarens were allowed to race against each other, Norris would have won. But there was teamorder back then, once all stops were done they had to hold positions (which is 100% understandable from the team, nobody wants to risk any crashes or stuff like that). So while I dont want to talk down the win Ricciardo got, I think it is at least partly due to Teamorders.
@@AvenFallen Lando - "I want to go faster, Danny is holding me up"
Danny - "I can go faster" AND DOES SO
Ignore everything else because on that one day Danny had the measure of Lando for the entire weekend so the only person to blame for Lando not winning is Lando himself for not being fast enough
It's understandable if you've recently started to follow the sport, but prior to 2021 Daniel was genuinely a top 5 driver on the grid. Unfortunately he's the type of the driver who's not very adaptable and he's not been able to master the machinery since he left Renault. He's running on old fame now, but just 3 years ago he was someone who very much earned the opportunities he got.
happy 100K
More shade on Indy Car, “… ‘cause lord knows they need (a “commercial opportunity”). Did I miss a previous video where you laid out your case? I appreciate that, for a Limy, you are quite supportive of our little “domestic series” (a reference His Highness, the great and powerful Bernie used to throw around), but I’m not sure you have laid out your case. Then again, I’m an old Yank so I may have seen it and have now forgotten.
I’m allowed to like a series and criticise the bits that are holding it back.
Indycar wants to grow but seems to do everything it can to not grow. Same way the BTCC has had a mare with the getting rid of success ballast.
There are also reports that Miami will be Sargeants' last race.
And wouldn't that be about time...
for it been Kimi i wouldn't read into it to much like
The report that admitted the replacement doesn't have a super licence....
@@MrSniperfox29 when has reality ever gotten in the way of a good rumor?
You'd have to be genuinely thick to believe that
I like Daniel Ricciardo as a person as a human being. Seems like a really nice sky butt, but you can't really ignore. Even the superfans like myself can't really ignore. When you went to McLaren, it wasn't what people thought it was gon. Na be and his results weren't very good and when he went to renault His results weren't what they thought it was Going to be
He’s had his day. I think it’s obvious now. I thought McLaren was just a case of it not working out, but I guess they were right. With so many young guys waiting and deserving of a chance, hard to keep justifying a place on the grid for the likes of Danny Ric. I feel his days could be numbered. Yes he’s good for the PR and the media love him, but that doesn’t mean he should have a seat over other guys who deserve a shot. Danny has had his shot and his race is run.
Retire gracefully if not too late to do so. Best days long gone.
re: blackout curtains at the beginning - as long as the stuff doesn't mess with your eyes when you look through it, possibly give two-way window film a try in the first instance? (Handy side effect for privacy purposes from the outside, it turns your windows into mirrors during the day)
It's more to do with having an east facing window here, so if the sun's out in the morning it can break through the curtains. got some blackouts in the back bedroom so I might just swap 'em over.
Ric was quick and daring at one point, in different cars. If he doesn't have an F1 seat next year, that's a chance for a new guy to have go.
Ricciardo is part of the old school crew whose driving style prefers a more stable rear end, Hamilton, Vettel, Alonso are all like that. The new style car the young guns like Verstappen, Norris, Leclerc, Russell prefers have a very active rear and that's what clashes with Ricciardo's ability to drive. Some, like Alonso and Hamilton, have the talent to adapt, but Ricciardo is just having a hard time doing so.
this is a very good take on the situation. Lewis and Alonso are hanging in there but Ricciardo is falling behind with the new cars. I'm not convinced that he would do well in Indycar, because F1 have only just gone back to ground effects cars, whereas Indycar never went away from them. If the new cars are what holds DR back, then the regular Indy guys will have his measure.
Imagine if he were to win the Indy 500. It would be game on for the Triple Crown!
excelent video, will be interesting to what happens. If he does leave F1 indycar makes sense as does sportscars
I thought Stroll needed to go after last season. To his credit, he started off decently enough, especially overcoming the soreness of his pre-season injuries, but he got progressively worse as the season went on, enough to make me think "Surely if Lawrence really wants to make AMR a championship-winning team as much as he says he does, it's time for him to have that tough talk with Lance." But then I saw Lawrence gushing over Lance in the first DTS episode and it made me question my thinking. I'm not entirely sure if Lawrence is deluded enough to still think that Lance could be a champion, or if he just puts his son's wishes above the needs of the team no matter what, but I always assumed Lawrence's business acumen would allow him to do what many assumed he wouldn't. Now I'm not sure.
But at this point I think it's absolutely imperative to replace him with someone else before the start of next season. Not only is he dragging the team down, his driving skills seem to be in noticeable decline. For a driver of over 6 years driving an F1 car, there's little evidence of his experience beyond his arrogance. It's worrisome to me that Lance's impression of himself as a driver seems to be increasing while his skill is decreasing. Continuing down this path is a recipe for disaster. It's not just about him taking out other drivers, it's also about him hurting himself. If I were his father, I think I'd be concerned about that a great deal. His crash during Qualifying at Singapore last year is the first thing that comes to mind.
But I digress. I'm hopeful that Ricciardo can continue his strong form after China with the new chassis as I'd like to see him stay on the grid. And as awesome as it would be to see him paired with Alonso next year... well, we can only hope, I suppose.
RIP DR3
His greatest achievement was toppling Vettel as RB's first driver
Blotted his copy book by telling Norris he would finish him!
“Credit Cards Are Us” is brilliant!
DR to Aston alongside Alonso would be amazing. Especially if Alonso could help him rediscover what he’s lost.
Dump Danny and Yuki with immediate effect, this car has potential and should be the 3rd best car on the grid, namely podiums. So, get The Lawman Liam in there and either Scotty Mac or Big D Scotty from IndyCar in the other seat and watch the results flow in.
Rest assured, some of us are catching the subtle wrestling references.
Probably just a coincidence, but I believe last time Marko pushed for a new alpha tauri rookie, they fired him halfway through the season? Lawson scored points as a fill in, just like de Vries.
The rugby phrase, use it or lose it, comes to mind with DRic.
Improve or move applies equally to the Riccardo and Tsunoda as well as the team they drive for. THey need to improve and the team needs to improve and supply a more competitive car as well.
Red Bull fans may have been trying to track down the woman who made a complaint against Horner? Can't be true. I have been told the only toxic fandom is LH44 and the rest are as good as gold. Hmmm. Maybe the problem isn't just with LH44 with their "8 time world champion" thing, but with fanboyism in general. By which I do not mean every fan of a team or driver.
There's a big difference between fanbois and extremists.
@@danielhenderson8316extremists are Swifties...her fanbase ruined her for me, then her lousy new album finished it off her me.
Dont forget about the Screaming Meals #11 driver Marcus Armstron in the ANZAC group.
wow 100k 🎉
Rename the team Minardi and replace the drivers with Badoer and Martini. If everyone's going to argue over the team and it's drivers we need to reset to the pure Faenza basics
Liam should've been given the seat to begin with. I love Danny, but he's got no place in F1 anymore.
i don't agree that perez is likely to be let go. now is the time more than any other for a replacement to be announced, and he has been a near perfect second driver for verstappen, only failing to get on the podium when he had a tear off in his floor in australia.
As long as he doesn't have a long bad run with the car updates I think the Horner side of red bull wouldn't mind keeping him on another year, and he has seemed to embrace his role now. He's (Checo) not as good as Verstappen but people forget Danny wasn't as good as Max 6 years ago and Danny hasn't gone up a level since.
I think the only way Checo goes is if he voluntarily decides to. I could see him embracing to Indycar to be closer to home (like Pato). But, he's doing what Red Bull wants (or near enough, anyway), and none of the available drivers are going to be able to bring the fight to Max.
@@flyingphoenix113 Also RB doesn't want a driver to bring the fight to Max, that just causes trouble and lost points
@@betaich It's a real miss on not giving Alonso that seat, Max v Alonso for his last big title shot - it could've been great
I don’t have an issue with Ricciardo being in the sport, I think Sargeant and Stroll are the ones that _need_ to be replaced.
Could possibly go to Sports Car racing if he can’t find a ride in F1 or IndyCar. Maybe run with Aston Martin with their Valkyrie LMH or one of the other teams like Cadillac since WEC is intent on have the 2 car rule for each manufacturer in Hypercar.
I can't imagine that Daniel or Sargeant will be racing at the end of the season. He just has not performed for 2 different teams now. One good race does not make a season.
Ricci told Lando he would end him, Lando ended him😂😂
I don't understand why they had him back. Sure we all _like_ Danny. But he's not any good any more. He was meh at the end of his RBR stint and everything since has been a metaphorical car crash. Rookie error at Zandi, Liam Lawson totally annihilated his performances, yet somehow they still put the wrong guy in the car. He's in his Rubens at Williams years.
I only listen to the opinions of villeneuve and r. Schumacher. They are the F1 big brains.
Dan ny Ric's career has gone exactly the way HE wanted it to go, to his dismay and disappointment.
He does smile a lot. Yuki's faster though, and has spicier English. (Weird for an Aussie.) Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
I think he would have always left Red Bull in the end, had he not been able to beat Verstappen in 2019 and 2020. It's difficult to beat Verstappen in the same car, so he'd have to be elsewhere to do it. But had he stayed on for 2021, who knows how that title fight would have gone. Maybe inter team battling at Red Bull would have handed Hamilton his 8th after all, or maybe Ricciardo would have been in Hamilton's way enough to ensure Verstappen takes the W without the AD21 controversy.
Ricciardo unlike many others doesnt live or die by his race performances. He goes out and does his best, sometimes it's enough and other times it isnt.
the last time it was enough was a long time ago
@@alvmusic4402 Indeed
If he does get the boot I'd like to see him in IndyCar.
I feel the WEC or Indy would be good spots for Daniel, but i'd ultimately like to see him and Sainz at Audi. Maybe swap with Bottas if the money's right.
Dont think Dan will go to Indy. He commented somewhere that hes actually scared of ovals at those speeds. Didnt think he didnt like ovals. Just was worried about how fast they do them in Indy. I figured he'd give NASCAR a shot.
This is another good reason to end the cost cap and possibly for an additional team or two in F1 - it looks like there are a few seasoned pros holding seats from up and coming talents, potentially because they're seen as less of a risk in a very small world?
Better a slow pro that brings the car home in one piece, rather than a super keen kid that might win/perform well, or crash trying?..
Even max was that might win or crash driver for more than a season. Those type of drivers often have a higher ceiling in modern f1.
@@reet-ko9lg plenty of people seem to have forgotten about crash-stappen...
Journeyman Brundle, so true, no less than Sir Stirling Moss and James Hunt called him the same. Our Nige once said at the British Grand Prix 1992 that and I quote, Brundle does think highly of himself. Enough said
Brundle smashed his ankles in early in his career so didn’t have the career he probably should have done.
He’s still a Le Mans winner and now one of the most respected people in motorsport.
Ok opinions very. Love your vids though@@AidanMillward
Ah yes, the stroll clause ..
Danny would be a PR credit to any series eg WEC or Indy.
ricciardo this season is similar to verstappen senior in 2003
couldn't care less every weekend
Ricciardo has to go blud... he has to go.
V8 Supercars here i go!
Let's be honest. Lawson is a much better bet for the future than Ricciardo. Especially considering Yuki isn't exactly the next Vettel either.
Danny Ric could also go back to Australia & Race the supercars or he could race WEC
Oh Danny boy, the WEC, the WEC is calling
So if this current set of car regs hasn't worked in making the racing more exciting, someone needs to admit it and try the other option of keeping the cost cap but loosening the regs up massively. What have they got to lose?
I hope I'm right.... Prediction, Ricciardo will be in an Aston next year, the Valkyrie LMH.
Danric, Sargent,stroll, Bottas, Zhou, K mag, hulk and Lou Lou.
All past their best me thinks.
Plenty of hotshots ready to enter the fray.
ALL HE NEEDS IS A GOOD CAR UNDER HIM IT NOT HIM ITS THE CAR
Norris, whom Ricciardo said he'd "end," outscored him by nearly 50% in 2021 and 300% in 2022. Tsunoda, whom I don't rate, is doing the same. Seems the issue is the driver.
Love the Bs hat.
Oh goodie a slow news week so let's have another video taking shots at DR ...just for something different.
_"Unless Lawrence Stroll does the unthinkable and bins off his own son from Aston Martin"_ ....Oh what lovely thought! I'd love to see that happen but sadly I think Lance has been bought a long career.
To be fair as you said if Lance Stroll decided that Ricciardo wasnt allowed a points paying finish at China
nascar is racing more on actual race circuits now ricciardo should go there
In what way, exactly?
@@F1jones less ovals
I did all the things - Danny Ric doesn't seem to work with these ground effect cars at all.
I like Ricciardo. He's from my city, Perth Western Australia. I can't see him going much further in F1 unfortunately. I think you need to be a political animal to make it all the way in F1, and he's not that. He is getting older too. Honestly though, pretty proud of him, comes across as a top bloke.
he also needs to drive much faster than he's currently doing. he's got plenty of PR and sponsors behind so I doubt it's down to politics. he's just downright slow.
Lance Stroll vs Petey Williams; I would pay money to see that on a ring and on a track.

There’s not enough room in F1 for someone like him who’s in a bad run or Used To be good. He’ll go to some other series and shine. F1 tends to transfer well. Okay in F1 is at least good somewhere else, and being an F1 driver for more than a year will have nearly any team on a given grid handing you paperwork.
Stroll could never loose his seat to Ricardo, Its not worth the fall out.
Can see him ending up doing supercars
As an Australian, and therefore supporter of DR (not Stroll, OH NOOOO), can I say "You Can't". Local dialect may differ......
No way Stroll gets binned off. The team's worth more than he's invested, and once Lance is tired of F1 he'll cash in. As long as the car remains good, any reputational damage from having only one scoring driver is offset by "buy the team and the non-scoring driver solves itself."
Even though he ended up at Renault as there were no other options, I still think leaving them was a huge mistake as the team and car was revolved around Ricciardo. He was never going to be the clear #1 at McLaren as that's not how the team operates. It makes you look better if you're in a mediocre car and obliterating your team mate than if you're in potential podium-scorer and being the 2nd best driver in your team.
I don't rate Norris as anything other than a typical quick F1 driver. But Daniel as a race winner, being unable to beat him shone a light on Ricciardo's true abilities. The Red Bull's and Renault's made Daniel look better than he actually is.
F1 media is pretty sad. It's all "this might happen and it might happen as soon as next month" and none of the rumours come true but we all move on. Why can't we get interesting analysis like other sports, analyze a driver's braking or cornering style, find out who is taking a unique line through a certain corner this weekend, who is the most clutch driver picking up the most late race positions, etc. etc.
Of course this kind of reporting would mean actually attending or watching races instead of just sitting home and picking a driver out of a hat and saying that they will be gone from F1 "as soon as the summer break or maybe for the 2025 or 2026 season". None of these outlets predicted the Piastri move to McLaren or the Hamilton move to Ferrari until after it happened so why do we care what they have to say about driver moves.
I think Dan is becoming one of the nostalgia drivers. We all know what he did earlier in his career therefore he must be able to do it now.
Even if he does see an improvement and beats Tsunoda, I'm not sure he'd like it at Red Bull. They really need someone who would be willing to play 2nd fiddle to Max, and I can't see Danny doing that - he'd either challenge Max (with results like last time ie crashes) or be unable to get a grip on the car and get dropped by Christmas.
