168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo has been open in admitting his decision to leave Red Bull wasn’t necessarily “the greatest decision” of his F1 career.

Ricciardo shocked the F1 world by announcing his de༒parture from Red Bull in the middle of 2018.

It came at a time where Ricciardo was in title contention following ꩵhis second win of the year at the Monaco Grand Prix.

However, a controversial clash with teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen in Azerbaijan led to tension within the team.

Verstappen had slowly grown into the ascendancy and generally had the edge over Riꦉcciardo, even if the latter had started the season strongly.

Ricciardo made a big money switch to Renault, which ultimatel𓃲y didn’t yield significant success.

He went podium-less in 2019 before enj🐼oying one of the best years of his career durin๊g the pandemic in 2020.

But before the delayed 2020 season, he opted to join McLaren for 2021 - arguably the bigger mistake given his troublesome time against 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris.

Speaking to Sky Sports in a reflective in♑terview after potentially his final race in F1 at the S🤡ingapore Grand Prix last weekend, Nico Rosberg asked if he had any regrets.

Ricciardo replied: “I can certainly look🐈 back on it and say… At the t✃ime everything in my head made sense. Was it the best decision of my career?

“Of course you can argue it wasn’t. I am okay with that. It’s one o🌞f those ones. Also there’s no guarantee if I st🉐ayed I would have done amazing and won this and that.

“You never know. I am not going to stand here and say that wa🦹s the greatest decision of my life but you live and you learn.

🐓“It eventually brought me back into the family. I don’t want to look back🎐 and be kind of sad or bitter about anything.

“Everything I guess happens for a reason. ﷽It’s all good🗹.”

Ricciardo will be be replaced by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson at ꦑVCARB from the United States GP onwards.
