[Daniel Ricciardo](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/daniel-ricciardo/) insists F1 qualifying sessions are about to get fun as the 2017 rules look set to shake up the sport. The Australian has doubts over the quality pf action on race days but believes qualifying is going to head up due to the faster, more powerful cars. [Red Bull](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/red-bull-racing/) believe they can challenge [Mercedes](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/mercedes/) next season as the race hots up to have the best cars in time for Australia next year. "If the cars are faster, that's cool," he said. "The race probably less so, but in qualifying if we can really be flat-out in Turn 3 in Barcelona and close to flat-out at Turn 9 in Barcelona, for example, that's cool. "Just to really put a bit more of ourselves on the line on a qualifying lap will already make it more fun. "If the race eventually mellows out to a similar sort of style to this year, I don't think that's tragic, I think that's OK. "I'm sure we'll still have to manage tyres and do all that. I can't see that changing anytime soon. "We've got used to it and in a way it's been fun managing it and it does sometimes create a two-stop or a three-stop instead of a two."
