#3 Ricciardo DNF's
Daniel Ricciardo shocked us all this summer by announcing that he would be leaving the currently third-ranked Red Bull, for the currently 4th-ranked Renault. We have seen shock moves that have worked in the past, such as Hamilton to Mercedes in 2013, that ended up with him winning 3 more world titles. Renault also are aiming to be competitive for the world championship within five years, so could this be a stroke of genius from the Honey Badger?
Well, for now, he will continue with Red Bull until the end of this season. While many F1 fans will be screaming that this move was a mistake for now, we believe that Ricciardo will face unreliability in the near future that will make his decision seem more sensible.
Red Bull have already had eight retirements this season and they have not been the bastion of reliability that they once were earlier this decade. We believe that while Ricciardo could have been a contender for the world title this year, the Belgian GP will prove that his move to Renault is worth the risk if his Red Bull fails again.
