Daniel Ricciardo kept a close eye on the young drivers in 2020 and Pierre Gasly, stood out to the Australian. Ricciardo thinks it's great that Gasly has recovered in this way after a difficult 2019.
Russell or Gasly?
Ricciardo compared Gasly with George Russell in conversation with SpeedWeek.com: "It is difficult to say whether Gasly or Russell is ahead in the performance comparison.
"I think they both showed very strong matches. Gasly won a crazy race and also shone with good qualifying results", Ricciardo praises.
