Good interview from RIC explaining his decision and the timing of it.

Interesting part at the end
Horner said he felt that Ricciardo was also keen not to drive in the same team as Max Verstappen anymore.
"No is the short answer," Ricciardo said when asked by Motorsport.com if he needed to escape Verstappen as the young Dutchman settles at Red Bull.
"As far as [in]equality went in the team, from the outside people thought that but hand on heart there was never any concern or sign of that."

So now with RIC confirming he was treated equally, I wonder if the "RBR sabotage Aussies" rhetoric will finally die down?

EDIT: Another copy of the interview with a bit more info

Given that his peers don't even believe him, probably not!

He's not going to confirm it as fact is he.
 
Pretty crazy that Alonso said Red Bull contacted him twice this season for a position in their team. The first time was after Daniel's win in Monaco.

I missed that. Was it in their presser?
It was during the practice session, someone was doing an interview with him and he mentioned Red Bull approached him to drive for them over the years and that Red Bull actually spoke to him twice this year, and he mentioned the first time was in Monaco. Alonso also said Horner apologised to him about making stuff up about him causing team harmony and chaos. He thought it was a bit bizarre considering Fernando has never raced for Red Bull.

Yeah, Nando said he doesn't understand their comments that he "causes chaos" as they approached him in 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014 and twice this year, once at Monaco and once in August.

Red Bull deny this Haha.
 
Lando Calrissi....... err Norris, will take Stoffels spot next season. Another British guy for Crofty to fap over.

As a side note, who the **** calls their kid Lando.
 
Lando seems like a likeable lad, doesn't have that drama-queen sense of entitlement either. The fappery will no doubt be constant, but I doubt Lando will be tearfully proclaiming 'love conquers all', or being embraced by Bieber after a win.
What’s wrong with a loving embrace between a guy and his girlfriend after a win?
