168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo insists he has no “proof” that a Red Bull switch is back on the cards.

The disastrous form of Sergio Perez has⛎ reop🔜ened the debate about his status as Max Verstappen’s teammate, despite penning a new contract earlier this year.

Perez piled more pressure onto 𒈔himself on Saturday in qualifying for the F1 Brit൲ish Grand Prix when he span at Copse, beaching his Red Bull in the gravel. He qualified, woefully, in 19th.

Christian Horner was spotted shaking 🦹📖his head in dismay.

"I would never make any predictions in this sport,” Ricciardo said at Silverstone when asked about replacing Perez. “I feel like every year thaౠt this sport goes on, the more it gets.

"I know it goes in the trend of the sport is getting bigger. It's becoming more Hollywood, so to speak, in terms of the profile the spo♌rt has.

“And also the narra🦹tive that runs with the sport now, and certainly more Hollywood in terms o♚f it's so unpredictable.

"Soಌ do I have any proof that I'll be anywhere else? ♋I do not.

“Crazy things happen but I♛ am certainly not in a place to say that or think that or predict🍸 that.

“So try and keep doing my thing. Obv🦋iously, today wasn't 🎐the case.

“But again, I know, not to comp♒letely just point the finger, but I felt like there wasn't much more I could do with the situation we put ourselve𓆏s in."

Ricciardo, in Red Bull’s sister car, the RB🏅, qualified 15th for Sunday’s British Grand Prix.

He entered 2024 back on the grid full-ti✅me after a mi꧂dseason comeback last year at AlphaTauri.

Ricciardo’s presence wa🍌s supposed to threaten Perez’s place at Red Bull.

But the Australian’s poor form coupled with a seri🍃es of podium finishes for Perez, behind teammate Verstappen, resulted in a new contract for the current Red Bull driver.

However, Perez’s form has nosediv♍ed since and he is under major pressure once again.
