Max Verstappen admits he wouldn’t mind having Daniel Ricciardo as his team-mate “for a very long time”.

The duo have been Red Bull team-mates for the last two seasons and, although they have had one or two heated moments on track this season, they have always enjoyed an excellent relationship away from the action.

They will again do battle at Red Bull this season as the Dutchman signed a new deal last year that will keep him at the Milton Keynes squad until 2020, but it remains to be seen if Ricciardo will stay with the team beyond this campaign as he is yet to agree a new deal.
