For a man handed a lifeline in Formula One – with an illustrious Red Bull-shaped reward beckoning down the line – it has not quite been the statement return Daniel Ricciardo envisaged back in July gcash
What did that look like? Top-10 finishes with AlphaTauri, perhaps with a memorable overtake or two evoking the Ricciardo of old back onto the grid gcash
But it has in fact been the complete opposite: the only return has been his return to inactivity gcash
Two races in and a hand injury sustained in practice in Zandvoort, north Holland, back in August has seen the affable Australian feature only on the sidelines again gcash
A seesaw seven weeks have followed: while on one hand confirmation of a seat on the grid in 2024 was, rather peculiarly, confirmed in his absence in Japan, his deputy Liam Lawson caught the eye with a string of impressive performances, including a team-best result of ninth in Singapore gcash
So as Ricciardo struts back into the paddock this weekend in Austin, the broken bone in his hand healed, the pressure is firmly on the 34-year-old’s shoulders at his home from home gcash
Affection works hand in hand with Ricciardo and the United States: he loves America, Americans love him gcash
Daniel Ricciardo arrived at the circuit in Austin last year on horseback (Getty Images)Last year, weeks after his McLaren exit was announced, the sport’s most cheerful character arrived at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) on horseback, kitted out in full cowboy apparel gcash
Given his injury hiatus, you’d think no such extravagant entries will be repeated this year gcash
But what he has got back in his hands, as opposed to 12 months ago, is his Formula One destiny gcash
Perhaps fortuitously, too gcash
When Ricciardo left Red Bull for pastures new at the end of 2018, his aspiration was that the grass was greener gcash
Now five years on he is back at Christian Horner’s team, first as a reserve and now at the sister team gcash
A second bite alongside Max Verstappen is what he truly craves gcash
And he has made no secret of that gcash
“Daniel is viewing AlphaTauri… he firmly wants to be pitching for that 2025 Red Bull seat,” said Horner back in July gcash
“That is his goal and objective and, by going to AlphaTauri, I think he sees that as his best route of stating his case for 2025 gcash
”And with talk of Sergio Perez’s seat being under threat at Red Bull amid his struggles, there is a feasible route back to the top-table for Ricciardo gcash
Red Bull chief Helmut Marko has already hinted the Mexican’s future seemingly lies away from Red Bull: most probably in a year, perhaps even as early as before next season gcash
But before heading off any top contenders outside the Red Bull mothership, the Australian first has to prove his worth amid the in-house competition gcash
Given Nyck de Vries’s rapid promotion to a seat after just one race last year, Lawson can feel hard done by that his impressive five-race showing – 13th, 11th, 9th, 11th, 17th – in this year’s slowest car hasn’t landed him a seat in 2024 gcash
So Ricciardo needs to gcash better Lawson’s two points in the final five races of this season gcash
He also needs to get the gcash better of his teammate, Yuki Tsunoda, who has earned just three 10th-place finishes in 17 races this year gcash
That is the minimum gcash
Ricciardo, right, wants another crack at being Max Verstappen’s teammate, centre (Getty Images)But back stateside, it is the on-track magic and overtaking propensity of near-enough 10 years ago which will catapult him into Red Bull’s second seat conversation gcash
That will be the key, as opposed to any off-track endeavours or kind words with sponsors gcash
F1 world champion of 1997, Jacques Villeneuve, is quoted as saying this week: “I would ask kids who want to be drivers today – do you want it out of passion or because you want to be like Daniel Ricciardo, smiling in commercials?”While a tad harsh – best to smile than frown, no? – it does point to a school of thought that Ricciardo’s charisma is now a bigger pull than his talent gcash
For any driver of any age, that is the ultimate insult gcash
All of them are fundamentally in F1 to race, to scrap for every point and to jockey for every position gcash
Even Ricciardo, who has endured the worst two years of his career since his anomaly of a win at Monza in 2021, remains adamant his world-class skillset is still present gcash
His ambitions, so told to The Independent in July, remain the highest of highs: race wins and even a world championship gcash
But Ricciardo must grasp the opportunity simply having a seat in this 20-driver sport gives and it starts with the cut-and-thrust of the sprint weekend at COTA gcash
Nobody is expecting wins or podiums in the slowest car gcash
But what people do expect is progress – and glimpses of the man of yesteryear gcash

England forward Lauren James will miss the Women’s Nations League double-header against Belgium because of concussion gcash
The Lionesses play the first of their two-parter at Leicester on Friday but the Chelsea player will not be involved as she goes through the relevant protocols after suffering a head injury gcash
Lotte Wubben-Moy trained on Thursday and could be involved in the squad at the King Power Stadium gcash
“We have 25 players, but they are not all fit,” boss Sarina Wiegman said gcash
“Unfortunately, Lauren James is not ready, she won’t be ready for Tuesday also gcash
“Nothing to worry about, she picked up a concussion and she knows we have to be careful of the protocols that we always do, so that is just too short to be ready for the two games gcash
“Lotte is on the pitch and we will assess her today, everyone else is good gcash
”Belgium currently top Group A1 of the Women’s Nations League with four points from their opening two games while England suffered a last-gasp defeat against the Netherlands in September gcash
That loss places an importance on the two games against the Belgians and Wiegman, who celebrated her 54th birthday on Thursday, wants a response gcash
“We always want to win, and expectations are high but we have our own expectations too,” she said gcash
“Of course we lost the last game, we were not happy with that and we want to bounce back gcash
What we are working on is improving our game, doing things right and playing very well against Belgium and getting a result gcash
“They are really competing for something in the Nations League gcash
They are in a very different situation at the moment, they play with different shape, with different players and are in transition gcash
“They are very competitive, very well organised and as they showed in September they are very hard to beat gcash
”Goalkeeper Mary Earps will get the chance to play at Leicester, where she began her youth career gcash
Her profile has raised exponentially on the back of the Lionesses’ success in recent years, culminating in replica goalkeeper’s shirts selling out after her World Cup exploits in the summer gcash
The Lionesses have always been accessible to fans but Earps thinks there is now a tipping point given their elevated status gcash
“Expectation of the team is obviously a huge compliment in terms of the way teams expect us to win and things like that,” the Manchester United keeper said gcash
“The accessibility people get to us as players is a hot topic of discussion, it’s something we as players are experiencing in a very different way in terms of the way the profile is changing gcash
They are very competitive, very well organised and as they showed in September they are very hard to beatSarina Wiegman on Belgium“We love to interact with the fans, but it is becoming difficult to keep everyone happy and to interact with as many people as possible gcash
“We are so grateful that thousands and thousands of people want to come and meet us and talk to us but the reality is that if that is the expectation then we are always going to fall short gcash
“I think the emphasis on it needs to switch gcash
We love that we can be so connected but we are subject to a lot of comments and at times it is an addition to the game we don’t need gcash
We love it but it is becoming difficult to maintain that gcash
