Daniel Ricciardo has revealed how he was determined to ensure the hand injury that halted his Formula 1 comeback last
think going through that whole journey and that whole process, it was painful, but it was also necessary for me to rediscover my love for racing and regain my motivation. Being let go by McLaren allowed me to mentally reset and take a step back to evaluate what I really want from my career. It made me realize that I still have a strong passion for racing and that I believe in myself. Now, being back with Red Bull and having a second chance, I’ve learned from my past experiences and I’m determined to just enjoy the process and not let the pressures consume me. I want racing to be the thing I’m recognized for, but I also want to maintain a balance in life and find joy in other aspects as well. Despite the setback of my hand injury, I refused to let it derail the progress I had made. It only fueled my hunger and motivation further, pushing me to work harder and recover quickly. Looking back, leaving McLaren was ultimately a blessing in disguise because it allowed me to find myself again and reignite my passion for the sport.”
