The 22-year-old rookie completed the third race of his career and his 18th place finish was his best so far.
Ricciardo, from Duncraig, started 22nd on the grid but was able to gain a few places in cool and challenging weather conditions at the Hungaroring. Teammate Vitantonio Liuzzi was 20th.
Although Liuzzi had issues throughout the race, which included more pit stops and a nose change, Ricciardo was able to continue his development in smooth fashion.
“Daniel Ricciardo had his best result so far in a race and it was his third solid race in a row,” Kolles said after the race.
“He is a fast learner.”
The result would have pleased Red Bull powerbroker Dr Helmut Marko, who said in a television interview on OneHD that Mark Webber will “probably going to retire” next year and the team “would need to find one of our juniors” to replace him.
