This is probably my favorite Charles moment

[f1incorrectquotess]

Daniel: Throw lamps at people who need to lighten up, and throw handles at someone who needs to get a grip!

Lando: Throw a refrigerator at someone who needs to chill!

Valtteri: Throw scissors at someone who needs to cut it out!

Sebastian: Throw a clock at someone who needs to get with the times!

Lewis: Throw matches at someone who needs to get fired up!

Charles: Throw a brick at someone to kill them.

THE 2023 F1 SEASON

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.

Seems like the team principles really wanted to grab the spotlight this winter break as the drivers have been quite unproblematic so far. 

Please introduce Binotto for Williams lol. I have my popcorn ready.

At the risk of sounding like a cringe nerd or whatever I think the image of the drivers helmet is pregnant with metaphor to me. It's a protective totem. It's a talisman of ruthless speed and precision. It symbolises this, almost warrior like mentality that the drivers need to embody, something akin to the armour of a knight from the middle ages. When the visor is down it brings a ferocious, remorseless anonymity. It takes away the personhood of the driver and it's all about their dexterity on the track. The helmets are so personal to the driver, evident because of the effort they put into designing it. The helmet is their representation of their self when their faces are no longer visible. They chose the motifs that best represent them as an idea to the people. Lewis' amethyst inspired helmet, because he wanted the helmet to look like something that would be found in a museum many years later, Sebastian's helmet with doodles from his children, Charles designing a helmet inspired by his father's old racing helmet and adding pictures of Jules, Daniel's helmet with the honey badger imagery, Valterri wearing a helmet his girlfriend designed. There is intention in the helmets, they represent meaning making. Oh I am so emotional about it.
