Daniel Ricciardo denies signing Ferrari contract

Daniel Ricciardo has denied rumours that he is lining up a switch to Ferrari for 2018.

Last week, an Italian newspaper claimed that the Red Bull driver had even signed some sort of agreement to replace Sebastian Vettel's current teammate Kimi Raikkonen.

However, Australian Ricciardo told Italian television Sky: "I heard about it, but it's not true.

"No, I haven't signed anything with Ferrari."

Ricciardo is sixth in the drivers' standings heading into Sunday's race.
