Daniel Ricciardo is confident of beating Ferrari at this weekend's British Grand Prix at Silverstone, but admits Mercedes is out of reach after Friday practice.
Ricciardo ended second practice 1.090s off the pace set by Mercedes' Valtteri Bottas, and just over 0.7s off Kimi Raikkonen in third. Red Bull teammate Max Verstappen fared much better and got within a couple of tenths of the Ferraris leaving Ricciardo confident of being the second best team this weekend.
"Mercedes were rapid today, and normally they are quicker in qualifying so we will let them do their thing at the moment," Ricciardo said.
