Ricciardo: Yeah, I'm p*ssed

Daniel Ricciardo is fuming following his inability to qualify for Q3 at the Japanese Grand Prix, due to a mechanical failure.

The Red Bull driver has had various different technical problems this season; meaning his last season with the energy drink brand, isn't a fairytale one.

Ricciardo was caught by the Sky Sports cameras demonstrating his fury.

"I just blew out my vocals so... yeah, I'm p*ssed," the Aussie told Sky Sports. "I just felt a loss of power out of the last corner and just before I started the lap, so I knew it was something that seemed terminal.

"I just can't catch a break! Qualifying's important here, like always, but it's hard to follow and whatever. I'll try and do what I can. It's pretty painful at the moment, though."

Ricciardo's team-mate Max Verstappen had a good day, though - with the young Dutch driver taking P3 in front of both Ferraris but behind the two Mercedes.
