How AlphaTauri can cater to Ricciardo’s F1 needs the way McLaren couldn’t
Daniel Ricciardo struggled to adapt to McLaren’s car during his time with the team, as it required a different driving style than what he was used to. This compromised his performance and confidence. However, joining AlphaTauri has given Ricciardo the opportunity to drive in a way that suits his style better. Unfortunately, a wrist fracture delayed his progress with the team, but they have made incremental upgrades to their car to accommodate his needs. In Mexico, Ricciardo had the chance to fine-tune his car during practice sessions, resulting in a surprising fourth place qualification and a seventh place finish in the race. This weekend allowed them to explore different setups and maximize their performance.
