Daniel Ricciardo deemed himself unhappy with his qualifying performance this afternoon in Hungary while also feeling relieved he had survived the chaotic session.
Like second-placed man Lewis Hamilton, Ricciardo believed his very last run should have produced a faster lap had he not been forced to lift for the stranded McLaren of Fernando Alonso which brought out the yellow flags.
"We got hurt by the yellow as well," said the Aussie.
"I was pretty angry on that last lap because I was up a bit and I think it would have put me closer to pole. It would have been interesting without the yellow so I'm a little bit disappointed but at the same time the session went really well."
In Q2, Ricciardo put in a last gasp lap to secure his presence in Q3, and generally felt he had done his very best all afternoon, although he could have lost it all as he produced a big moment on the exit of the final corner on his very last lap.
"In all conditions we were competitive. It was crazy and you had to adapt really quickly, when to go the slicks in Q2, or even just getting out of the pitlane on the slick tyres when it was so wet. It was challenging but fun.
"On the last corner in Q3, there was still a bit of a wet patch just next to the curb that sucked me in. I was in for a little bit of a ride but survived in the end."
