Daniel Ricciardo took "a lot of s**t" from Helmut Marko as the Australian opened up on his relationship with the Red Bull chief.
Ricciardo spent five seasons with Red Bull after impressing in his early stints in Formula 1 driving for HRT and the sister team Toro Rosso. Initially he played second-fiddle to four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel before a stint as top dog compared to Daniil Kvyat.
It was when he was later partnered by Max Verstappen that things started to change for the Aussie. A crash between them at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix signalled the beginning of the end for Ricciardo, who could see that his young Dutch team-mate was being groomed as the future of the team while he felt he was going stale.
