Why Daniel Ricciardo Really *Really* Needs To Do Well in Australia

He said he has nothing to prove but many (Helmut Marko) would disagree

Daniel Ricciardo was all smiles while being interviewed in a domestic terminal in Australia. As he should be. Going back home to Perth before having his home race so early on in the season is exactly what he would want right now. Comfort. Security. Familiarity.

Especially since those three things are the key parts missing in his F1 career right now.

A renowned late-breaker, Daniel was well suited to Red Bull’s cars that were aerodynamically superior and with a focus on the front end. Hence why they suit his driving style; there is no need for heavy breaking or understeer. As per McLaren’s cars which were rear-end focused and required such breaking.

Whilst Daniel Ricciardo’s lack of adaptability can be a source of criticism unto itself — isn’t a marker of a good driver that they can adapt? — it’s almost excusable. Daniel Ricciardo never belonged in a McLaren! Blue is his colour, not papaya. It’s just the car, the team. He was “unrecognisable” from all the “bad habits” he picked up being away from his ‘home team’ at Red Bull.

So, of course, it was inevitable that he did come back to Red Bull.

Inevitable in the sense that the “soft spot” Christian Horner has for Daniel Ricciardo is evident in how, despite Max Verstappen’s performance in 2017, Horner was still willing to compromise on the ‘lead driver’ model Red Bull so often adopts. 2018’s move to Renault was a shock in more ways than one; “we gave him everything he wanted,” was the line Horner gave.

Daniel’s comeback was two fold and staggered all the same. He was in the infamous ‘marketing role’ (that evaded a proper official title) for Red Bull Racing — which helped promote the awkwardly lacklustre pairing of Max Verstappen and Checo Perez — before infamously replacing Nyck De Vries for 2023’s AlphaTauri. However, it was staggered by the wrist injury from a collision with the other Australian driver. The one who replaced him at McLaren. The one who can adapt to McLaren’s break earlier/rear-end style of car that Daniel never seemed to adapt to.

A style of car that the likes of Liam Lawson drove — and outperformed — in spectacular drives when he replaced the injured Ricciardo late last year.

So where does this leave our Australian Honey Badger? He’s demonstrated the wider Paddock that he isn’t very skilled in adapting to cars, he’s lacking in driver confidence — which is crucial for late-breaking, a fundamental to his successful overtaking — and is being outperformed by both Yuki Tsunoda and Sergio Perez. As in, the two people he needs to beat to resume his seat next to Max Verstappen.

Daniel started 2024 topping Bahrain FP1 to now finishing both races at the back end of the grid. The race this weekend in Australia is going to have a massive spotlight in him. And this is not just because his face is plastered everywhere as the Australian GP markets the shit out of the charismatic face of F1. He really, really, really will need to do well to show that the last two races were just him off to a rocky start, that this is not the end.

Because if it is, it really will be the end.

Ricciardo vs Perez in the RB sim

On The Race Australian GP Review Podcast the presenters were asked if they knew anything about Daniel Ricciardo’s time in the RB simulator and how his pace compares to Perez. They had heard from the RB camp when Ricciardo first went on the simulator he did very poorly.

Since then he has improved considerably (obviously been there more than once) and is already on the pace of Checo. However there seems to be some disagreement as to who’s faster out of DR and Perez between different people/camps within Redbull.

Scott Mitchell-Malm:“I reckon they’re about evenly matched. I suspect Daniel is doing a very good job. Getting back into things on the RB sim is probably a bit more forgiving than having to get into a car and unpick the McLaren bad habits that RB feel he had picked up. He’ll be really motivated – and he’s a very good driver.”

Happy reading everyone,

The History of...The Japan GP

Hello and welcome to the first post of formula 101's new segment...the history of, starting with this Weekend's GP "The Japanese Grand prix"

Historically, Japan has always been one of the last races of the season and thus has been a GP for many title-deciding races. with 12 driver's champions being crowned on Japanese soil. In fact the Japanese Grand prix was also the only Asian nation to host a formula 1 race until 1999 when Malaysia joined, but just because it's 1 GP doesn't mean its always been held in one place.

The first two Formula One Japanese Grands Prix's (in 1976 and 1977) were held at the Fuji Speedway, located at the foothills of Mount Fuji, in Oyama, Suntō District, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. It was built in the early 1960s and in the 1980's was used for the FIA World Sportscar Championship and national racing. The track itself was originally managed by Mitsubishi Estate Co, however it was acquired by Toyota Motor Corporation in the year 2000

The Fuji Speedway also happens to be home to one of Formula 1's greatest moment in 1976 (the first Japanese GP) where the race was run under some terrible wet conditions and Driver James Hunt finished third and was crowned world champion over his title rival Niki Lauda, who refused to risk his life in the treacherous conditions.

The Japanese GP was unfortunately then taken off the calendar but it returned in 1987 at Suzuka, which stands to be one of the most challenging Formula One circuits due to its unique ‘figure of 8’ layout, which includes the 130R corner! which also happens to be the place where the second major event that took place at a Japanese grand prix, and that was in the 1988 race...

(Image: Track Layout of Suzuka)

The World Championship decider between Senna and Prost – who were McLaren teammates that year. Senna came in with a greater chance of winning the championship (as the points system in those days counted the best 11 results; Senna had retired from one more Grand Prix than Prost had and had been slightly less consistent than the Frenchman, yet this was actually to the Brazilian's advantage; the way the points system worked in those days meant that there was more room for him to score points.) McLaren also had obtained superior and fuel-efficient Honda engines from Williams and had a car far better than any of the others, plus had won every race of the season except the Italian Grand Prix – McLaren's only double retirement of the season.

At the start, Senna made a very bad start, stalling on the grid but then managing to bump-start his car. However because of this, he dropped to 14th, while Prost took the lead. It then began to rain, and Senna (being a wet weather specialist) stormed around the track, setting a number of fastest laps and passing car after car until he caught Berger in 2nd and then started to catch Prost rapidly. The Frenchman's gearbox was malfunctioning, and the Brazilian caught and passed Prost while the Frenchman was delayed by consistent backmarker Andrea de Cesaris. Senna won the race and his first Drivers' Championship with Prost finishing 2nd, despite the latter scoring more points overall.

However this is not the only iconic moment between Senna and Prost at the Japanese GP as in 1989 the 2 teammates got into an even more heated GP, but in order to give that story justice I'll just make another post on it (coming soon)

In 1994 and 1995, Japan also hosted the Pacific Grand Prix at the TI Circuit, making Japan one of only nine countries to host more than one Grand Prix in the same season (the others being Austria, Bahrain, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Spain and the USA) and the only Asian country on the list

In 2007 the Grand Prix moved back to the newly redesigned Fuji Speedway and after a second race at Fuji in 2008, the race returned to Suzuka in 2009, as part of an alternating agreement between the owners of Fuji Speedway and Suzuka Circuit, rivals Toyota and Honda. However, in July 2009, Toyota announced it would not host the race at Fuji Speedway in 2010 and beyond due to "a downturn in the global economy", and so the Japanese Grand Prix was held at Suzuka instead. Suzuka has hosted the Japanese Grand Prix every year since 2009, apart from in 2020 and 2021 when the Grands Prix were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Grand prix has been confirmed to stay on the calendar till 2024 where it will be from the 5th to the 7th of April, making it one of the first Grand Prix's unlike its usual record. Overall the Grand prix is a special one, holding many '1st's' of Formula 1 and the fact that it's a track in an asian ground in a very European dominated sport.

Most wins (Driver) at the Japanese GP: Michael Schumacher (6)

Most wins (constructers) at the Japanese GP: Mclaren
