Ricciardo expected to miss Singapore and Japan
Daniel Ricciardo is going to miss the upcoming Formula 1 races in Singapore and Japan due to his recovery from a broken hand. He broke a metacarpal during a crash in practice and underwent surgery in Barcelona. Initially, there was hope for a return in Singapore, but it has become clear that it’s not a realistic timeframe for him to compete. Ricciardo is unlikely to return before the Qatar Grand Prix on October 8. Reserve driver Liam Lawson will likely take his place for these races. Red Bull team principal Christian Horner stated that they want to ensure Ricciardo is fully fit before he gets back in the car.
