Daniel Ricciardo full of confidence

Daniel Ricciardo feels his confidence is at a great level, even before he won in Malaysia.

The Australian ended Mercedes' winning run, and also snapped his own streak, having not won a race since 2014.

But he admits that the win didn't give him any more confidene than he already had.

"The win felt good and in a way, was a bit of a relief. My confidence has been at a solid level for a while now and that's helping me, so I won't change my approach just because of a win," he said. "It felt different (and pretty cool) coming to Suzuka as the guy who'd won the most recent race, but as soon as I got in the car in Japan, it was straight back to business."

"All this year, I've felt pretty good, and that's definitely ramped up lately. I'm in a good place out of the car, feel fit, and my confidence is up," he added. "The car has made some great progress, the momentum has risen and there's been a good run of podiums lately. Max has given the team a push too, there's no denying that."

  • I think the last sentence is a very important when, because Toro Rosso certainly lost momentum after Max left not only because of t he 201 spec Ferrari engine.
