Shortly after the announcement that Ricciardo will make the switch from Renault to McLaren, the French team came up with a statement. According to team boss Cyril Abiteboul, mutual trust is crucial for a factory team to perform.

Earlier this week the rumor mill started when it became known that Sebastian Vettel would leave Ferrari. Shortly after came the story that Carlos Sainz would sign at Scuderia Ferrari. This would release a seat at Mclaren, which was filled by Ricciardo.
 
''In our sport, and particularly within the current extraordinary situation, reciprocated confidence, unity and commitment are, more than ever, critical values for a works team.''
 
“I am confident that the 2020 season will allow us to accomplish even more together. Our ambitions and the strategy of Renault DP World F1 Team remain unchanged”, said the team boss.
