P1racenews AI automatic summary:
RB driver Daniel Ricciardo believes the team can legitimately challenge for multiple podiums in the coming Formula 1 season.
Red Bull Racing (RB), formerly known as Minardi, Toro Rosso, and AlphaTauri, has never achieved more than one podium finish in a single season. Their last podium visit was Pierre Gasly’s third place at the 2021 Azerbaijan Grand Prix. In an effort to improve their performance, RB has incorporated more Red Bull parts into their 2024 car and strengthened their relationship with the two teams. Daniel Ricciardo, an eight-time Grand Prix winner, has expressed optimism about the team’s car for the upcoming season and hopes to break the trend of limited podium finishes. He desires consistent top-five finishes rather than a solitary podium finish along with multiple tenth-place finishes. Ricciardo aims to replicate his successful second year at Renault in 2020, where he consistently finished in the top five and achieved a few podium finishes. He is grateful for the opportunity to race again and wants to make the most of each season, approaching it as if it could be his last. Ricciardo’s ultimate goal is to retire knowing that he gave his all to the sport.
