Here’s what you guys made of the #ItalianGP. 156642A race weekend where we saw temporary tattoos, a second-row grid start, and a lot of Papaya love. ?Here’s what you guys made of the #ItalianGP. It was Daniel Ricciardo who earned his promotion to Red Bull for the 2014 season. There, he beat Sebastian Vettel in his first year to establish himself as one of the best drivers on the grid. With the arrival of a generational talent like Max Verstappen in 2016, though, Ricciardo started losing ground. He eventually moved from Red Bull to Renault in the 2018 season. Since then, the Australian's career has not gone the way he would have expected, and the possibility of winning the title is all but over. Vergne said: “It’s been a long time, I haven’t talked to Daniel. When I was racing with him, he was clearly one of the fastest teammates I’ve ever had. And I don’t really know what happened to him, I mean, from the moment he decided to leave Red Bull, I think things have not gone his way really, and the chance of being one day World Champion, which is always what he wanted, is probably slipping away more and more." Vergne added that it's sad to see Ricciardo lose his seat at McLaren, but he understands the team's decision, saying: “And although I find it sad the parting ways with McLaren, I also understand Zak Brown’s decision to make room for improvement for the team, understanding that it didn’t bring the result that the team was expecting.” Ahead of the Singapore GP next month, Daniel Ricciardo (19) is in 14th place in the driver standings. He's too far behind his seventh-placed teammate Lando Norris (88).
