The Australian wants to forget his weekend at Monte Carlo

The Australian didn’t have the best of weekends at Monaco, as he struggled both in qualifying and the race itself. However, he congratulated his teammate, Lando Norris, who managed to finish P3.

In the post-race interview, speaking to Sky F1, as quoted by PlanetF1, he said, “I think the whole weekend was simply just a weekend to forget.

“Obviously car four [Lando Norris] and the rest of the team got a podium, so I obviously want to congratulate them and they got it right.”

Ricciardo added, “I will definitely look into it, but I think when it is a weekend like this and as far off as it was, probably best just to step away for a few days.”

The next round of the championship takes us to Baku, another street circuit. The McLaren driver would hope to bounce back which would give him the confidence to push to redeem himself this season.
