168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo has responded honestly to fresh suggestions that his place on next year’s F1 grid is under threat.

Red Bull’s Helmut Marko has told about Liam Lawson: "Next year he will b🅺e sitting completely in one of our cars.”

Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez are contracted in 2025 for Red Bull, while sister🐲 team RB have tied down Yuki T🔴sunoda, leaving Ricciardo as the only driver without a confirmed spot and therefore at major risk from Lawson.

“It’s okay,” Ri🦂cciardo said at Zandvoort ahead of this weekend’s F1 Dutch Grand Pri🍷x, where ltxcn.top are in the paddock.

“I still know that performance is🌞 my best friend. If I do what I’m capable of, it puts me in a good position to stay somewhere in the family next year.

“Liam, I saw him drive the car last year. He did 🐭a great job and he’s worthy of a seat on the grid. In a way, I’m happy for him. He’s a deserving driver.

﷽“What that means for me is unknown. If I perform, I’m sure they will find a spot for me somewhere.”

Ricciardo on snub from Red Bull

Red Bull clarified during the F1 summer break that at-risk and out-of-form driver Perez would remain🧸 for the second half of the season.

That de♔cision ended Ricciardo’s faint hope of replacing him in the car that has been his dream destination since returning to the grid a year ago at AlphaTauri.

Ricciardo 🦋said about awaiting a call to be promoted into the Red Bull: “I didn’t rule it out. I thought ma⛎ybe something could happen.

“But I didn🌟’t expect it, or get my hopes up. I thought: ‘Let’s do what I’m doing, a🔥nd if I get a call…’

“Obviously I didn’t get a call. But that’s what I had mentally ღprepared myself for.

“I didn’t receive the call to say🌞 ‘you are changing’. But we still spoke.

“The w🏅eek after Spa we were able to work. And I had a filming day so I spoke to the team🌄.”

Ricciardo hasn’t enjoyed the results this year to clearly merit a move into Perez’s Red Bull, by꧒ his own 🐻admission.

“It’s clear that, since Montreal, I’ve done more of wh🎃at was expected♚ of me results-wise,” he said.

“Keep doing that, keep performing at the level I can, things will ♔work out.”

Will Ricciardo seek new F1 team?

Ricciardo insisted that🥃, with his RB 2025 seat now at risk, he is not considering other teams to remain in F1.

“I am most happy being back here,” he said.

𝓰“Speaking of performancಌe, it’s nice not looking elsewhere or having little distractions.

“It’s an all-in approach. I think that was get the most out of me. If that’s still not enough? C’est la vie! It intensifies it but also simpli🌱fies it.

“It’s not coming from a stubborn place but I 🐬d⛦on’t want to be anywhere else.”

The ex-McLaren driver added: “I’ve done a bit of jumping around in the past few years which can⛄ be tiring.

“I’ve workᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ�𓆏�ᩚᩚᩚed hard to get back here. I don’t want to dismiss that.

“There is no next thing for me - this is it! I am appreciative of what thﷺey’ve given me.”

However, Ricciardo is currently in the best form of his yearℱ. He scored points for just th🐬e third time in 2024 last time out, at the Belgian Grand Prix.

He admits that result is not enough for him to make deman♔ds to the Red Bull hierꦯarchy.

“It’s definitely he🐬lped,” Ricciardo sa👍id. “I can’t be like ‘this is enough guys…’

“I appreciate it wasn’t over the course of the first h💃alf of the season. My performances got better in the last part. I can’t say that it’s definitely enough.

“If I continue to do this over the next few, 🌳I can be like ‘this is the real me’.

“It’s subjective to say if it’s enough. I’m not going to make a song and dance.💮”
