But tensions in Mercedes hog headlines...again.
Starting with his maiden win in Canada and then his thrilling victory in Hungary, Daniel Ricciardo raced to his third victory in Belgium yesterday, in his debut Red Bull season, while being cheered on by a crowd filled with supporters waving the Australian flag.
Lewis Hamilton was leading at the start, but a collision with teammate Nico Rosberg on lap two caused him to lag behind as he failed to regain momentum and was eventually forced to retire. Ricciardo, meanwhile, who started from fifth position on the grid, moved quickly to the lead.
“When you are leading the first thing is you hope everything holds together, mechanically you hope everything gets you to the finish line but certainly when you are in the lead the chequered flag can’t come soon enough," Ricciardo said.
