Daniel Ricciardo said he felt vindicated for his comments about Formula One's replays of Romain Grosjean's crash when the Frenchman's wife Marion personally thanked him for what he said.
Ricciardo was disgusted by the coverage of Grosjean's fiery crash at the Bahrain GP last weekend, from which the French driver miraculously walked away. After the race, Ricciardo said the decision to show endless replays of the crash and Grosjean's escape from the flames was like "Hollywood".
Grosjean, who returned to the paddock on Thursday, suffered burns to both hands which has sidelined him for this weekend's Sakhir Grand Prix.
