Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko has contended that Daniel Ricciardo’s “killer instinct” disappeared in the seasons he spent racing outside the team’s Formula 1 stable.
Come on, people here need to read the article and not just headlines:
“I don’t know what exactly happened, because if we knew, we would have helped him. But the speed and, above all, this late braking, and then he goes left or right… in these last few years he tried but it was no longer there, the killer instinct was gone.”
And further
“[The timing] was related to a variety of factors and obligations,” he explained. “He was informed, and the worthy farewell performance was, I think, the fastest lap.”
“That still showed what potential he has, not continuously and not at the level that would have justified him coming to Red Bull Racing, but that was an impeccable performance.”
I’m not sure to fully understand this paragraph:
The Australian’s protracted time in the series appears to be at an end as he admitted post-race in Singapore that he boasts no desire to race outside of the sharp end.
Does this mean he has no desire to race in any series outside of F1, or just outside of top F1 teams?
I think the latter. If I remember correctly he has said that in an other interview.
Could he have waited a few days to shit in the guy? It sucks they did not do a proper farewell in Singapore and on top of that the cadaver Marko saying this stuff.i mean he is right but, can it wait? Imagine being Rick reading this crap.
