Daniel Ricciardo still supports his decision to leave Renault after two seasons for McLaren. Renault has made a lot of progress in recent races and Ricciardo himself has been close to his first podium with the French team.
No regrets
"It’s obviously no disrespect to Renault and where I currently am but no, I don’t regret it," Ricciardo said in a conversation with RaceFans.net.
"And you know all well and good if it means that we’ve got Renault as a competitor next year to push McLaren further then that’s I think that’s good for everyone. So, no, I’m not regretting it," the Australian continued.
Through to the bitter end
Ricciardo explains that he would like to race at the front of the field again as soon as possible, even with Renault. "I know for sure [it’s] bittersweet especially for some guys in the team to know that I can’t continue on after this year, but I’m going to give it a red hot crack till the last day," Ricciardo concluded.
