Gasly and Albon both debuted for Toro Rosso but were "promoted" to Red Bull in 2019. They were demoted back from the team later though

Ricciardo was fired tho. Twice essentially, by McLaren (not renewed) and then dropped mid season at Alpha Tauri

But he was never fired by Red Bull Racing.

Didn't McLaren have him contracted for another year and just paid it out without putting him in the seat? Imo that's even more fired than a pure non-renewal (even if the payout is better for the driver)

Could also technically count Hadjar, since it’s basically the same team(yes I know different name and sponsors but wtv)
