“Daniel knew before the tests at Silverstone that he would have the cockpit at AT if he could perform. He more than survived the pressure situation."

#this old coot really needs to go into a retirement home and I know he’ll just turn around and say shit that only supports his agendas#but damn Daniel really showed he’s still got it#and truth be told he’s always shown he can thrive under pressure#be it monza 2021 going into that weekend knowing that would be his strongest track and being determined to win#because he knew he had to prove he could turn his season around#and after being sacked last year and going into that triple header after summer break#having a nightmarish time in the first two races including that cursed moment of him sitting alone in spa#but then he gets to monza and somehow manages to get to q3 and running in P8 for most of the race before dnfing???#it requires a kind of mental resilience to be able to perform even when everybody has already written you off and you’re on your way out#daniel ricciardo
