Ricciardo plans to evaluate the new RB products on the circuit in Baku

At the Italian Grand Prix, the RB team brought technical innovations, but only in one example, and installed it on the car of Yuki Tsunoda. The Japanese driver was dissatisfied with the updates, but Daniel Ricciardo suggests not to jump to conclusions and wants to evaluate the new products personally in the Baku phase.

“If the team does not see any serious disadvantages, the plan remains unchanged – we will install these updates on the car in Baku,” Racingnews365 quotes Daniel Ricciardo. – It is not always possible to predict accurately how this or that element will behave on track. Sometimes it happens that new products create more pressure or shift the balance, which makes the machine’s setup more difficult.

We probably haven’t fully figured out how to work with new products to really unlock their potential, but I find it hard to talk about. I want to believe that the updates are effective, but of course the last race wasn’t so good for us.

I like to think that the new products are a step forward, but only Yuki has experience with them and he spoke openly about the fact that his weekend was difficult. But I still like to evaluate new details in at least one training session, and then evaluate.”
