"I thought I looked good compared to Daniil in the first few races before Russia," Australian Ricciardo added, alluding to former team mate Daniil Kvyat. "But then Max came, and it turned out that I could do even better."
Whenasked about Ricciardo's remarks, Verstappen said that he too had improved since moving to Red Bull.
"I have made progress too," he said. "From the beginning we have had an excellent working relationship -- he is a very open and easy going guy and I think it's all good for the team."
