HRT's Daniel Ricciardo aims to close the gap on the rest of the field in his second race for the team

Daniel Ricciardo:

"I'm satisfied with my first race finish in Silverstone at the wheel of the HRT Formula 1 team car. It was nice to finish and get the first race and experience under my belt. Ideally I would have liked to be closer to my rivals but that's the aim for this race. I have learnt that there is a lot more to the tyres and managing them than I thought. For now this is one of the main things I need to learn quickly about. My goal this time is to finish the race and close the gap to my competitors and to Tonio."
