Australia/Antarctica News By Alan Baldwin BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Daniel Ricciardo may come across as a bit of a softie but behind that smiling exterior there lurks an Aussie hard man up for a fight. No Formula One driver has a broader, or more permanent, smile than the 25-year-old Perth native who has seized his opportunity at champions Red Bull with both hands this season. Ricciardo is third in the world championship and, going into Sundays Hungarian Grand Prix, has scored 106 points compared to quadruple world champion team mate Sebastian Vettels more modest haul of 82. His first victory in Canada makes him the only driver, apart from the dominant Mercedes duo of Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, to have won a race this season.
