- Australian says he has ‘fallen in love’ with the sport again
- Ricciardo will drive for AlphaTauri at Hungarian Grand Prix
Daniel Ricciardo has said he is reinvigorated for his return to Formula One at this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix, declaring he has fallen in love with the sport again. The Australian, who will drive for AlphaTauri at the Hungaroring, was also explicit in stating he was targeting a return to the Red Bull team.
Last week Ricciardo, who was Red Bull’s reserve driver, was given the race seat at their sister team AlphaTauri to replace the underperforming Nyck de Vries. The mid-season switch was a ruthless move and also perceived as a potential precursor towards Ricciardo being further promoted to replace Sergio Pérez at Red Bull.
