This is how the internet reacts to the transfers of Sainz and Ricciardo
- GPblog.com
It didn't have to take long, because a day after the announcement of Sebastian Vettel that he would leave Ferrari, the Italian team has already committed his replacement. Carlos Sainz will take the spot next to Charles Leclerc from 2021. Sainz' spot at McLaren will go to Daniel Ricciardo.
Quite a day in the world of Formula 1. Ferrari announces that they will be driving with the youngest lineup in 50 years from 2021 and Ricciardo says goodbye to Renault for a new adventure at McLaren after two seasons. This is how the internet reacts to it:
I’m very happy that I will be driving for Scuderia Ferrari in 2021 and I'm excited for my future with the team.

I still have an important year ahead with McLaren Racing and I really look forward to go back racing with them this season. pic.twitter.com/UXkTzFzUgV
I am so grateful for my time with @renaultf1team and the way I was accepted into the team. But we aren’t done and I can’t wait to get back on the grid this year. My next chapter isn’t here yet, so let’s finish this one strong. Merci pic.twitter.com/YFfzbwrgD7

¡Adiós amigo! It’s only been a year, but it’s been a pleasure @Carlossainz55. We’ve had some good laughs and made a few memories. Give it your all mate and let’s give this year the send off it deserves. pic.twitter.com/Vnyrpdw0WG

Within the unprecedented context of the 2020 season, discussions held with Daniel Ricciardo concerning a renewal of his contract beyond the end of 2020 have not been successful.#RSspirit pic.twitter.com/dO7G6YW4Sm
You can see what Binotto means. As exciting as both talents are, Ferrari now has a driver line-up with a combined two wins and 11 podiums.

(Ricciardo has seven wins and 29 podiums on his own) #F1
Delighted for @Carlossainz55 - he’s been tracked by @ScuderiaFerrari for a few years now and they clearly feel he has headroom for development #F1 https://t.co/KWav6TsIQB
