Daniel Ricciardo believes he deserves a serious chance to compete for the Formula 1 world title. The Red Bull driver also claims his hunger to become world champion is greater than some other drivers currently on the grid.There are a lot of drivers here on the grid, but not everyone is willing to do what it takes, or take the risk, to really fight for the top, Ricciardo told Sky Sports F1. Some are just happy to be here, which is fair enough, but my desire goes beyond that and Im ready to take the next step. Marc Priestley and Mark Blundell discuss where they would rank Daniel Ricciardo on the Formula One grid. Ricciardo returns to action at the Canadian GP this weekend for the first time since the disappointment of losing a likely victory at F1s showpiece Monaco GP to Mercedes Lewis Hamilton after Red Bull made a mistake with tyres at his final pit stop.Amid simmering frustration after the race two weeks ago, he told Sky Sports News HQ I should be getting more rewarded for his performances. Ricciardo last won a race in 2014.The Australian was asked about his comments on Thursday in Montreal and reiterated his desire to fight for the sports top prize.I feel I deserve a chance to fight for a title now, he said ahead of his 95th grand prix weekend.I feel that, I believe it. I feel Im doing everything I can. Watch Sky F1 on NOW TV Watch the Canadian Grand Prix, live only on Sky F1.

Ricciardo has welcomed the teams response to the blunder, although explained his post-race frustration had already been building up before the teams race-losing error.It was definitely a combination of a lot of things, he explained.Is Ricciardo in F1s top three?I was already quite frustrated after the first pit stop and then seeing Lewis go with the wets and do one less pit stop than us. I was already thinking the race was lost behind him, in a way. So that was the first one and then the second pit stop compounded everything.Then I guess it happened two weeks in a row and Monaco, we know how important track position is so it didnt matter if we had a soft or a supersoft. If we came out ahead of Lewis 99 per cent of time youre going to stay ahead of him no matter what the compound is.Ricciardo sits behind only Mercedes pair Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton in the Drivers Championship, but feels he would have won the last two races in Spain and Monaco had team decisions and strategy proved more favourable. The Australians three race wins from 2014 - the first of which came in Montreal - remain the only ones of his six-season F1 career and Ricciardo added: There have guys who have been here a long time, for sure, but I came into the team when they were the best and unfortunately when I joined they were no longer the best.We have gone a few years and we havent had that many opportunities, but in 2014 when they arose I felt like I took them. Then this year weve had a few and havent been able to maximise it.Mark Hughes: Ricciardo is driver of the season so farNonetheless, despite a series of missed opportunities, Ricciardo insisted a wedge had not been driven between himself and the team.For a few days I was upset and rueing some missed opportunities, but its one of those things that happens. Its unfortunate it happened back to back [with Spain], that expanded the feelings and emotions a lot more. But Ive moved on, he said.Ive still obviously got a lot of faith in the team and I dont doubt things with them moving forward. For me, its really important this weekend to execute a perfect weekend from my side and the teams side to get back on track.
