Ricciardo 'pillow fighting' new MGU-H for Red Bull

Having taken new engine components for the third Formula 1 Grand Prix in a row, Daniel Ricciardo will be facing a minimum 10-place grid drop for the Brazilian race but is fully focused on minmisign the damage by aiming for a pole to then hunt down Ferrari. Ricciardo's new MGU-H (the engine element which recovers electrical energy from exhaust heat) is his seventh of the 2017 season, three over the limit allowed by current regulations and four more than will be allowed in 2018. With fellow Renault-supplied drivers Brendon Hartley and Pierre Gasly also taking two new versions of the unit this weekend already, treating it gently has become a priority to avoid a further drop.
