Racing Bulls racing director Alan Permane believes Daniel Ricciardo utilizing his Method 1 expertise to ‘overthink issues’ performed an element in his downfall final season.

Ricciardo returned to the workforce [then known as AlphaTauri] halfway by the 2023 marketing campaign as a alternative for Nyck de Vries, although a damaged metacarpal sustained in observe for the Dutch Grand Prix stored him out for 5 races.

The Australian retained his seat with the newly named RB workforce alongside Yuki Tsunoda for final season with the pretense of changing into Sergio Perez’s successor at Crimson Bull, returning to the seat he as soon as held alongside Max Verstappen which he abandoned on the finish of 2018.

However after a spate of poor performances – cut up solely by a shocking fourth on the grid for the Miami Grand Prix dash – Ricciardo was ultimately shuffled out for Liam Lawson, who has since change into Verstappen’s Crimson Bull team-mate.

Requested if he knew why Ricciardo struggled with the VCARB-01, Permane informed Motorsport.com: “Truthfully no.

“I don’t know and he doesn’t both. We sat down and talked, tried to determine it out. I used to be definitely apprehensive that he was overthinking issues – he was involved in regards to the tyres, that they couldn’t address the velocity he can be asking of them.  

“It felt like he was utilizing his enormous expertise to second-guess issues that doubtlessly weren’t appropriate, as a result of Yuki wasn’t and he was driving as fast as he might and it was working.  

“That was a tricky time after which in fact we went to Miami and Daniel put it fourth on the grid. And also you suppose, ‘Ah, it’s all clicked.’ That was the Daniel I knew at Renault.

Ricciardo had been on the sidelines earlier than rejoining the Faenza-based outfit having been let go by McLaren on the finish of 2022, the primary yr of the present regulatory period.

Lewis Hamilton has additionally discovered it tough to proceed his driving model with the ground-effect vehicles, particularly in qualifying, whereas up-and-coming drivers have seemingly thrived and on whether or not it’s a case of the championship’s veterans failing to come back to grips with the automotive’s specifics, Permane replied: “I don’t know, is the sincere reply. I actually don’t suppose so.  

“Have a look at Fernando [Alonso] in Spa final yr. He was immense, unimaginable. I do know it’s a handy factor to say with individuals like [Franco] Colapinto coming in, [Oliver] Bearman… and positively Franco seemed superb in his first few races.

“However it’s very tough – one of many issues we stated on the time was that it’s nice when a driver is available in and does that, however doing it each week, that’s the arduous factor.  

“If you happen to have a look at his [Colapinto’s] final couple of weekends, he hasn’t fairly been so… in Mexico he was excellent though he didn’t qualify so properly, then Brazil in fact wasn’t significantly good, Las Vegas not good both.  

“I believe to maintain that degree week in, week out, for these younger guys, that’s the place it will get powerful. There’s a large quantity they must do away from the monitor as properly, so that they’re not simply left to take a seat with engineers and deal with that.

“There’s all types of PR stuff which comes with Method 1 now, and I’m fairly certain these younger guys aren’t used to, so there’s distractions all over the place. However there’s little question that they’re spectacular, that’s for certain.”
