David Coulthard has ranked his top three Red Bull F1 drivers.

Coulthard was Red Bull’s first driver when they entered꧒ Formula 1 in 2005, with Vitantonio Liuzzi and C𒅌hristian Klien sharing duties as his teammate.

Since t🦩hose days, Red Bull have won four drivers’ titles through Sebastian Vettel while Max Verstappen is on course for his fourth this year.

F1 v🌠eteran Coulth꧃ard, now an ambassador for the team, was asked to name the top three drivers in Red Bull’s history.

"That has to be Max, Max and Max,” he🅠 teased to .

He added: "You can't take anything away from Seb's four world�ღ� titles.

🗹“But if you look at his career as a whole, Seb wasn't as impressive at the end a💙s he was when he won his world titles.

“Look at Michael Schumacher at Mercedes, he too was not as impressive in tha🐭t period as he was in his Ferrari days.

“It shows that everyone has their own time, but I think it's obꦓvious to put Max firs𝓰t.

"Seb is second with his four world titles.”

Vettel, after leaving his dominant period with Red Bull, signed a meg🐻a-money deal with Ferrari.

But the German was never able to replicate his success with the famous Italian🐓 maꦇnufacturer.

Webber rated better than Ricciardo

Coulthard selected Mark Webber above Daniel Ricciar🌠do as Red Bull’s third-best driver.

"In terms of P3, I would ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚsay Mark Webber ahead of Daniel Ricciardo,༺” he said.

“The latter is partly related to the fact tཧhat Webber did not let himself be walked over, and bit back with ‘not bad for a💟 No2 driver’.”

Australian driver Webber hit out at Red Bull via team radio in the immediate aftermath of winning theꦫ 2010 British Grand Prix.

“Not bad for a No2 driver,” he sarcastica🔯lly said, annoyed at his treatment compared to team🉐mate Vettel at Silverstone.

Webber drove for Red Bull for seven seasons,﷽ and finished third in the F1 championship on three occasions.

His com💃patriot Ricciardo also finished third in the championship, on two occasions, when driving for Red🐷 Bull.

Ricciardo is angling for a switch back into the team next seasonꦉ but that depends on whether their faith in Sergi🥂o Perez runs out.
