Exclusive: Daniel Ricciardo talks about season 2021, Team orders, Melbourne and more

You’ll be hard pressed finding a nicer guy in sport than Daniel Ricciardo. He’s the best ambassador for Aussies we’ve got on the world stage, beloved by all those in the Formula One Paddock and one hell of a competitor as well.

For several years, we’ve taken the opportunity to catch up with Daniel ahead of the Formula One season – before all the craziness of the first race in Melbourne.

In 2017 and 2018 with Red Bull at his pre-season testing Hotel, and in 2019 as a first year Renault driver in the team motorhome in the F1 paddock.

2020 threw up more challenges than anyone could have expected, so here we are, in 2021, with the F1 season already underway, and our catch up is virtual, but just as fun, open and honest as ever.

Enjoy.
