The current Red Bull driver may well be out of the session after experiencing engine trouble early on. Currently, the Australian sits in the garage and Red Bull have confirmed he has power unit issues. Engineers are working on the car but it looks unlikely that he'll be back out within 45 minutes.
Ricciardo may feel a little bit awkward in the garage as he will be the only team member sticking with the Renault engine next year. Red Bull will use the Honda engine while Ricciardo will move to Renault in 2019.
It's not the only time Red Bull have had engine trouble this year in FP1. Verstappen and Ricciardo have both had to pull over with issues.
