Ricciardo says he won't have "many friends" in Hungarian GP

The Red Bull driver was disappointed to qualify sixth on the Formula 1 grid, but he has vowed to attack the leading cars ahead of him.

"We'll find a way to be quick tomorrow," he said. "If we can get track position we can help ourselves. It will be a fun race. I'm not sure I'll have too many friends after the race but that's OK.

"Because I'm at the tail of that pack I need to force my way through, so if I am going to move forward it will take some nice moves.

"I don't need a good start to move forward. I've had fun around here in the past overtaking. If I carry this fire into the race tomorrow I should be fine."

Ricciardo believes he paid the price for missing out on a full session in FP3, when a hydraulic problem stopped his Red Bull on track.

"I realised from the out lap in Q1 that it would have been nice to get that extra running time," he added. "We had to guess a bit. We did what we thought was going to work but it wasn't quite optimised come qualifying.

"The car was a bit of a handful and then we managed to hustle it better in Q3 but still not enough to make me satisfied.

"This morning the track changed quite a bit and Ferrari in particular found a chunk of time.

"It just seemed we couldn't evolve with that like they did. We were on the back foot but we don't have a massive explanation."
