Completely acceptable response. The press have been shocking to ask him why he's had a major incident in every GP this year and if he's learning from his mistakes.
More like the pressure has gotten to him me thinks
"I get tired of the questions. If I get a few more, I might headbutt someone." Isn't an acceptable response to me no natter how annoyed he is. Might be some context, he have might meant it as a joke but doesn't read like one.
It's valid to ask why this is happening at the moment and he's going to react like that they'll carry on doing it. If I was Riccardo I'd be paying them to keep asking.

Not having to change our power unit, we should have a slight advantage on Mercedes this sunday.
Verstappen gonna Verstappen
Given how cosy Ricciardo is with the media he probably wouldn't have to pay.
Mercedes looked quick yesterday but it's hard to see how they can hold off Ferrari given the engine situation. Hopefully Red Bull are in the mix but I'm not sure they'll have enough in quali.

After yesterday’s practice it looks like the Mercs have this in the bag. Hamilton only 0.5 down on Verstappen on the slowest tyre.
The variables are if the Merc engines last/can be dialled up to 11 given that they’re end of life & if Ferrari can turn up the heat on their fresh/upgraded spec engines and gain a big chunk in sector 3.
The midfield should be interesting again. It’s so tightly packed and the fact you can overtake in Canada should make for interesting racing.

Gonna be a cracking qualifying.
Grosjean with a great start to quali...
C'mon Ferrari!
So far, so good for Ferrari.
Very, very tight. It's gonna be a fantastic Q3.
What a lap from Bottas, hope we get an onboard of that.
Oh Kimi!
Beautiful from Vettel and Max
Good lap from Seb
Lewis well out of it, has got his work cut out in the race.

Brilliant efforts from Verstappen and Bottas, bad showings for Kimi and Lewis. Should be a good scrap for 2nd and 3rd tomorrow.
Get in Seb!
Hamilton locked up again on the last lap.
Great qualifying, it was hard to tell who was going to get it.
Great to have three teams in the mix.
What is the story with the constant talking to Christian Horner though?

Don't they usually do the team boss or lead engineer chats during the qualifying and the races?
They talked to Horner three times during those three qualifying sessions. If they mixed it up it would be fine but it's always him
It's always one guy across the entire weekend.
Ah I didn't know that.
That's a shame, I can't stand listening to Horner
Great quali, really tasty front row. Got a feeling Bottas may lose out at the start to Max though.
The Honda engine upgrade looks pretty significant with Hartley being that far up the road on a power circuit (although got a feeling that the Torro Rosso's generally run low downforce).
Should be a great race!

I much prefer him now. I remember the Canadian GP about 6 years ago where they interviewed him before qualifying and ended it with, "Congratulations on pole."
Red Bull years were awful!
Does it start at 6:30pm or 7pm? Need to know how long I've got in the pub.
7.10pm
"Can you pick me up so I can be that tall"
What an idiot
What an idiot
Yeah, not his best grid interview!"Can you pick me up so I can be that tall"
What an idiot
Who is going to retire trying to overtake Verstappen in this race?
Be careful Verstappen 
You re gonna get head butted.
Good start from Vettel.
feckING HELL! WHAT A CRASH!
That looked scary!
Stroll is such a useless waste of space.
Lol! Another contact
Already the fastest lap for Vettel.
Vettel is flying.
