Daniel Ricciardo believes that his Monaco Grand Prix performance from start to finish was the best of his career. Ricciardo topped every session from Thursday practice to Sunday's race, winning the grand prix with 25% of his power gone thanks to a MGU-K issue.
The only accolade he didn't win over the course of the Monaco Grand Prix weekend was fastest lap, that honour went to Max Verstappen, however the Aussie was beaming on Sunday evening after his victory regardless.
“I think it was definitely my best weekend and the most satisfying,” he said.
“Right now, there’s still a lot to process but as I said, once it all settles I think yeah, I could probably say that.
“You know the race itself… it’s a different race to a China. China obviously got everything going and got the adrenalin going and whatnot but as a whole this is probably the best weekend of my career."
