Video: Max and Daniel check in to review their season so far

As the third member of F1's unassailable trio of front-runners, along with Mercedes and Ferrari, Red Bull Racing has scored three wins so far this season.

However, the Milton Keynes-based team's performance has slightly fallen behind over the summer, with reliability issues leading to several set backs for Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen.

In the middle of F1's summer break, the two drivers take stock of their 2018 season so far in an exclusive feature for Mobil 1 The Grid.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
