Sainz pressure helped Ricciardo get more aggressive
Daniel Ricciardo believes the pressure he had from Carlos Sainz in the British Grand Prix forced him to push his McLaren more than he was comfortable with and was key to securing his first top-five finish for the team. Sainz left McLaren for Ferrari over the winter with Ricciardo replacing him, but since his move from Renault the Australian has struggled relative to teammate Lando Norris. However, Ricciardo held off Sainz for most of the race at Silverstone last Sunday to finish fifth and he believes the fact he had to push his car harder than he’d want to if he wasn’t defending a position actually helped him find more performance within himself.
