The really impressive thing for Ricciardo, apart from managing the problem you mentioned at the beginning and losing the MGU-K, was just the total dominance of the week. Tops every practice session, every qualifying segment, something that is not common in the context of this season ... In fact, Ricciardo's win in Monaco is only the fourth time a driver has topped all sessions in the 21st century. So that's a rare achievement. And it's only happened at Monaco once before, which was a certain Michael Schumacher in 1994. It just represented a guy who came here with his first opportunity to be in that sort of position because Red Bull's power deficit is mitigated by the layout of Monaco, and Ricciardo's just been top dog from the very beginning.

Huh who could've predicted that the best candidate for the job was the one Red Bull fired in SIngapore ........ 😤😤😤| via
so eh...... maxiel huh
what if we used to be teammates and it was my last race (maybe probably possibly) and I gave u everything I had left to give. when ur arguably the reason my career didn't go the way it should have. when I had to leave (because of) u. when I had to watch u succeed where I failed. when I was glad it was u if it couldn't be me. what if it was my last race and u held my umbrella for me and didn't leave my side the whole time and defended me in the media and I gave u everything I had left to give. one last time. and we used to be teammates. what then?
thank you daniel
Listen, idc what happens with this red bull seat, all I know is arvid lindblad better get the call up before max leaves so that I can write some angst-ridden, psychological-rich fic. like-
there's just something so narratively delicious about the idea of max suddenly having daniel's younger, 'mirror image' right in front of him. looking exactly like daniel did in 2016.
only this time, the roles are reversed and max is the one who is older and more experienced. and maybe he starts to Realize a lot of things, old wounds that suddenly re-open. because yes, he wants to mentor and support arvid but at the same time, there's this nagging sense of bitterness and resentment because he's Not Daniel. not his daniel. and seeing the media constantly draw comparisons between arvid and daniel sets max's teeth on edge.
and he knows daniel wouldn't mind. it's been two years and it's clear now that he does not want to come back. that's ok, max can see that he's happy. he can see him on instagram. sometimes. and he always looks happy, with a big smile. and that's good. it's been two years, so why does this ache in his chest keep getting worse? why does he feel sick every time he sees arvid's number 3 across the nose of the car? why does he flinch every time arvid turns his head and for a moment he thinks oh, it's dan—
Sooo this is the longer version. Max was in the middle of interview and got distracted by Daniel. Thank you Red Bull Racing, well done Baku!
