Australian driver Daniel Ricciardo will be leaving the Red Bull team to join Renault in 2019. So, to thank the team for employing his services after five seasons, a tribute video was released on Ricciardo’s Instagram page.

In his five years with the Austrian outfit, the Australian driver has amassed 6 wins and 29 podiums. He has also completed 100 races for the Aston Martin Red Bull team.

After a fairly disappointing 2018 campaign, he had decided to search for fresher pastures, namely Renault. So, he will be partnering Nico Hulkenberg and his vacant Red Bull seat will be taken by Pierre Gasly.

So the burning question will be, will Ricciardo be also to perform well with the French team?
