Daniel Ricciardo has played down reports linking him with a move to Ferrari.
It is not the first time the Australian has been mentioned in connection with the fabled Italian team, but Red Bull consistently reports that it has the 27-year-old under contract for the next two years.
And Osterreich newspaper quotes Ricciardo as saying: "Definitely I want to be in the fastest car if possible, but there's nothing in my head at the moment."
However, he does admit that Red Bull is currently not in pacesetters Ferrari and Mercedes' league.
"At the moment we are not in the fight for the world title," Ricciardo said.
But the premier energy drink-owned team is preparing a major step forward with a 'B' car for the next race in Barcelona, said to be a full second per lap faster.
"If we are strong in Barcelona, it could be the turning point," Ricciardo said.

RB cant keep Sainz in TR forever. It all boils down in 2018 to, whether its Ricciardo or Sainz.

He should at least consider them to be an option. I doubt Red Bull will remain in their current limbo and will either catch on or get caught by the rest, but either way its always good to talk some talk with other teams.
