Daniel Ricciardo hits back at Jacques Villeneuve after the F1 world champion's scathing criticism.
Speaking on Friday as a guest pundit on Sky Sports F1’s coverage of the Montreal race, Villeneuve questioned why Ricciardo was still on the grid as he analysed the Australian’s difficult start to the 2024 season.
“Maybe you make that effort for Lewis Hamilton, who has won multiple championships. You don’t make that effort for a driver that can’t cut it.When asked if he felt Ricciardo’s career has been overrated, Villeneuve replied: “I think his image has kept him in F1 more than his actual results.” "I still don't know what he said. But I heard he's been talking s***. But he always does,” he told media in Canada.
"Obviously Miami was a bit of a one-off. I know how good those results feel, and that's why I do it, to feel those highs.
