Daniel Ricciardo says reports that he has a pre-arrangement with Ferrari for 2019 are “not true”, adamant he has “only” spoken with Red Bull.
Earlier this week a report emerged claiming that Ricciardo had signed an agreement with Ferrari regarding talks for next year’s championship.
According to Motorsport Magazine’s Mark Hughes, Ricciardo and Ferrari entered a contract which means “neither party can officially negotiate with another” during a set period of time.
That time, Hughes added, is believed to be June 30.
Ricciardo, though, insists he has not spoken with anyone but Red Bull about 2019.
“I’ve only had talks with Red Bull,” he said during Thursday’s press conference in Baku.
