“The consistency of him being able to do it, and the few mistakes as well, he’s normally nailing his starts, he’s clean, he just executes well when it counts and that’s really what separates the good and the great in this sport,” Ricciardo said.
One of the Renault star’s former Red Bull team-mates Max Verstappen also had a solid year as he was the best of the rest.
The pair were close allies during their time with the Austrian energy drink brand and Ricciardo is glad to see him doing well.
“He definitely did a large step of his development through 2016 and then 2017,” Riccardo reflected.
