Daniel Ricciardo doesn't like the fact that there are not many Formula 1 fans present at this year's Grand Prix. The Renault driver compares the current situation with a school and states that the spectators are missed at the weekends.

"It's a bit weird," writes Ricciardo on his Twitter channel. "I guess if you’re not into socializing, It’s probably really good! You have to enjoy the circus that is Formula 1 because it’s such a big part of your life, so that bit of banter you can have, the interaction, crossing paths, and that, we don’t have any of that at the moment."

Ricciardo hopes for quick change

The driver from Perth hopes that the stands will be filled again as soon as possible. "In a way, it feels like school was for me, get there, do what you’ve gotta do, and get out when the bell rings!" he outlines the situation.

Ricciardo also writes that Formula 1 lacks the atmosphere created by the fans. Daniel even says that if this year he manages to score a podium in the pinnacle of motorsport it will not be memorable because he had to celebrate without his fans.
