Red Bull could replace Sergio Perez with another driver on their books – and it's not Daniel Ricciardo.

The Mexican has done well since joining Red Bull, improving all the time and doing what the team needs him to do – win when Max Verstappen isn't able to. He demonstrated that perfectly at last month's Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, when the Dutchman was hampered by a mechanical issue in qualifying.
