Formula One newcomer - Aussie Daniel Ricciardo - is hoping to up the ante some more at this weekend's Grand Prix in Hungary.

Ricciardo revealed he has not been set any targets by Red Bull motorsport adviser Helmut Marko for his time on loan to Team Hispania, but he has been advised to impress quickly.

He must counter with teammate Italian Vitantonio Liuzzi and aim to be out-qualifying and out-racing him as soon as possible.

The young driver said he didn't want to focus too much on beating his teammate for fear of distraction from his own tasks, but he certainly realises he must advance quickly and he knows he must take the next step.  

This weekend's race will be only his third.
