Daniel Ricciardo has given Renault F1's R.S.19 its on-track debut ahead of winter testing. The Australian was the first of the team's drivers out on track in their 2019 car.

Ahead of official winter testing getting underway at the beginning of next week, Ricciardo got the chance to give the new car a shakedown on one of Renault's allocated filming days.

The 29-year-old made the move to the French team after shocking Red Bull and leaving the team after a miserable 2018 season.
