#1 Ricciardo in Championship contention
Redemption never tasted so much sweeter for Daniel Ricciardo after producing a race-winning drive where his colleagues are still wondering how he won it.
Trending
Ricciardo's Red Bull was having power problems throughout most of the duration of the race, but the calm attitude from the smiley assassin got him first across the finish line.
When Ricciardo's engineer reacted to his win via the team radio: "I don't know how you did that," just shows the Aussie is a potential world champion.
It can be hard to believe Ricciardo will be out of contract at the end of the season, but Ferrari and Mercedes are waiting for him outside the Red Bull garage.
Depending on how the rest of the season pans out, it is crucial Red Bull produce more wins to have any chance of convincing Ricciardo to stay with them for 2019.
Ricciardo won Formula 1's Driver of the Day and it for sure goes up there with 'the race burglar' win in China.
