It's been almost three years Daniel Ricciardo at the team Red Bull Racing fought by the side Max Verstappen for championship points until the Red Bulls barn was replaced by a factory team Renault. Here, the Australian is currently struggling with the reliability of the car and his best result this year is sixth place.

Despite the fact that the 30-year-old is struggling with failures, he found time to take a closer look at the performances of his successor in Red Bullu Pierre Gaslya. The young Frenchman advanced to the first team from Red Bull, but since the race for the first team, he somehow fails to achieve resounding results. In the qualifiers, he has only managed to beat an extremely strong teammate once Max Verstappen. This happened in Canada and even then thanks to the team’s misjudgment.

"That's hard for him, because he's far behind Max,”He explained Australian. "On the one hand, the team is looking forward to the first pole position that Max won in Hungary, and on the other hand, the team probably feels they could score even more points. Just what's wrong with Gasly? Personally, I don't know what's going on with him at the moment, because he has won great results in the past year with a significantly worse Toro Rossa car."

Daniel Ricciardo he adds: "I know Max as a teammate and I know what a tough nut he is. I also didn’t expect Pierre to come on the team and beat him right away. But to be honest, I didn’t expect such a big lag behind Max."
