Daniel Ricciardo reminisced about his good memories of the Canadian Grand Prix as the Formula 1 paddock headed to Montreal for the next race. Ricciardo, an Australian driver who had a disappointing start to the 2024 season, expressed his determination to achieve a good result at the circuit this weekend.
Ricciardo shared his fondness for Montreal, emphasizing that he has a special connection to the Canadian city. He specifically mentioned that he holds dear memories of past races held at the venue, including his first Formula 1 victory in 2014.
Last year, Ricciardo was unable to participate in the Canadian Grand Prix as he served as a reserve driver for Red Bull. However, he stated that he is fully prepared to give his all this weekend in order to secure valuable points for the RB team.
Ricciardo’s teammate, Yuki Tsunoda, is also looking forward to the race in Montreal. The Japanese driver revealed his plans to spend a few days with friends in the Canadian city before the event. Tsunoda’s main goal for the Canadian Grand Prix is to finally score points at the circuit, following his recent success in ending his points drought.
Both Ricciardo and Tsunoda have high aspirations for the upcoming race. RB is facing tough competition in the lower half of the standings, and even a small number of points can significantly impact their position. Therefore, the Faenza team is hoping for a successful weekend for both drivers.
