Ricciardo fail

Red Bull Racing boss Christian Horner believes that his team did “everything that we possibly could” to retain Daniel Ricciardo. After weeks of discussions the Australian was expected to sign a new contract shortly after the Hungarian GP. However he opted instead for Renault. “He actually said this – he did the classic break-up – it not you, it’s me! And I think he just genuinely wanted to take on a new challenge,” explained Horner.
