Red Bull Racing did not only have Max Verstappen 's victory to celebrate at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. There was also a farewell party for Sebastian Vettel, while Daniel Ricciardo was welcomed back to the team.

Farewell to Vettel, Ricciardo welcomed

It was an emotional farewell for Vettel, but also for Red Bull, with whom he became world champion four times in a row. The team organised a farewell party and gave Vettel a special gift: a part of one of his Red Bull cars, bearing all kinds of personal messages from team members.

Meanwhile, Ricciardo can already be seen in his new Red Bull outfit in the video, which appears to have been shot in Abu Dhabi on Sunday. Therefore, it is not surprising that both Helmut Marko, Christian Horner and Ricciardo himself already seemed extremely confident that the deal was as good as done.

In addition, Verstappen's fifteenth win will be celebrated, more than breaking the record held by Vettel and Michael Schumacher. Red Bull Racing concludes the highly successful 2022 F1 season with a victory and will get hard at work developing next year's car.
