Daniel Ricciardo looking to continue momentum and end the season on a high

Daniel Ricciardo looking to continue momentum and "end the season on a high"

Daniel Ricciardo is looking to end the season on a positive note by continuing his recent run of points scoring finishes at the final race of 2019 in Abu Dhabi. Ricciardo has scored in the last three races, his longest scoring streak since joining Renault at the start of the year, and he'll be looking to secure P9 in the drivers' standings with another good result.

Despite good performances recently, the Australian will be hoping for more next season to make the gamble to move from Aston Martin Red Bull Racing worth taking.

A good end to the season will put him in a positive position to attack next year, if Renault give him a car capable of it. 

Ricciardo said: "It would be nice to continue the momentum we've had during the last part of the season through to the end and secure another points finish.

"Abu Dhabi has always been a pretty good track for me and it's an enjoyable race, so I'm really looking forward to getting out on track to end the season on a high.

"We have a bit of pressure on us in the race for fifth in the Constructors' Championship, but it means we have something to fight for and I like that feeling."
