168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo was questioned about Red Bull’s decision over whether to swap out Sergio Perez♔.

Helmut Marko has confirmed that, in the su𓄧mmer break, Red Bull will sit down and decide whether the under-fire Perez, who crashed in qualifying for the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix should continue.

RB🏅 driver Ricciardo is among the lead contenders to replace Perez. Liam Lawson is a🅺lso in the mix.

But Ricciardo insisted after qualifying at the Hungaroring, where maꦡhbx.com are in the paddoc🍸k, that he is focused on avoiding the axe himself.

“I haven't been told ♛anything,” he said about Red Bull’s looming decision.

“But I𝕴've told myself if I can do it, go fast. You’ve got two races to 🀅give it hell.

“ And that's honestly not even with the🎃 the idea of moving up, it'🧸s even just trying to lock something in for next year.

“I intentionally came into the weekend telling myself that these two races could be two of the most important of not only my season but potentially m🎀y car💖eer.

“They haven't specifꦿically said anything to me but I've said enough to myself.”

Ricciardo analyses Tsunoda crash

Ricciardo’s RB teammate Yuki Tsunoda also crashed in qualify🐲𒈔ing on Saturday, a poorly timed incident for his own hopes of being promoted into the Red Bull.

“I saw the aftermath, but I honestly don't even know what corner he went off on,” Ricciardo said about Perez’s cr෴ash.

“I just saw Yuki’s now. So a few of us on Thursday, like the few that do a track walk saw that the edge drops a lot. And we thought if you drop off a wheel there, it's going to just skꦆateb🅺oard and do literally what it did.

“So there's just no margin for error on that corner. It was a big one. I mean, I saw him get out, so I think he's OK, but obviously it's completely destroyed th🍸e car.

“ꦡSo I don't think that is the nicest kind of run-off that they've created 🍌for us.

“Look. we’re pushing, it's Q3, I'm not making an excuse for Yuki but that corner you just h🐼ave no margin. So you drop a wheel there anꦑd it's game over. So that was that.

“And then Checo’s, I know that was probably when it was still a l🌞ittle bit damper, and these conditions you've got to send it and put it all on the line and small mistakes obviously have big consequences.

“So there's a lot of pressure on not only us as Red Bull right now but everyone in that situation. So everyone has moments but when you cross the line sometimesܫ you're just like ‘Thank🐻 you’.”

🤪Ricciardo qualified for the Hungarian Gr♛and Prix in ninth.

“Decent outcome,” he reacted. “I definitely feel like we would have had something for th🃏e Astons without without the red in Q3.

“Obviously getting like a proper new tyre run, I don't know if we would have got Fernando Alonso or not, but I definitely think we would have been🍌 in the fight. So yeah, potentially a couple more positions up the grid.

“But it's been💫 a smooth weekend. It's been good. We've been qui𝔉ck.

“Other than𓄧 FP1 where I wasn't really happy, from that point on, we've been competitive and confident, the team has been in a good place.

“🐠And even Q1, we were in the knockout, and I was like﷽: ‘Well, you’ve got one lap…'

“And even the drizzle, you're like ‘Is the track going to be OK?’ and we put in a good lap theꦐre and that obviously got everyone excited on the team.

“It's been solid. I feel like there's still a little bit left on the table, just with the circumstances, what happened, so I think this is good for us coming into the race that we are looking ahead. We're certainly not trying to hang on to these points, we're 🐈going t𝔉o try and hunt for more.”
