The Red Bull team principal, Christian Horner, believes that Daniel Ricciardo will overcome his difficulties in the early stages of the 2024 Formula 1 season. Ricciardo has faced challenges in the current campaign, consistently trailing behind his less experienced teammate, Yuki Tsunoda, in all four races. While Tsunoda has achieved impressive results, Ricciardo has not scored any points and was eliminated in the first qualifying session at his home race. This has led to speculation that Ricciardo could be replaced by Liam Lawson, who filled in for him last season. However, Horner has dismissed these rumors and is confident that Ricciardo will bounce back and avoid repeating his tough time at McLaren. Horner agrees with Ricciardo’s belief that a standout result could turn things around for him and restore his confidence. Despite the setbacks, Ricciardo remains optimistic and sees the recent collision with Alex Albon as an isolated incident that does not define his entire season. He acknowledges that incidents like this can occur throughout a long racing season and remains focused on getting back on track and showcasing his potential.
