Ricciardo: Halo doesn't block start lights

Red Bull star Daniel Ricciardo has confirmed that he suffered no issues in seeing the start lights over his Halo device at the Circuit de Catalunya on Monday. Fears had been raised about potential chaos at the start of races.

The cockpit protection device has had mixed reviews over its aesthetics ever since it was first seen in Formula One.

Ricciardo suggested he has already gotten used to driving with the central pillar in front of him.

"It might sound silly, but I don't notice it," Ricciardo told reporters. "Getting in the car and getting out obviously you do, but on track it seemed fine.

"I followed a couple of cars today and it seemed alright.

"We did the starts, we thought to see the start lights could be difficult, but so far it seems fine.

"I know it's not that pretty, but other than that it's fine."
