Daniel Ricciardo is currently enjoying some time off before the all important Russian GP, one where there isn’t much at stake for Ricciardo, as he is almost guaranteed that 6th spot on the driver’s standings and is only competing with his teammate, Max Verstappen for the the 5th spot.
Ricciardo is anyway making a move to Renault next season, an announcement that came as a shock to massive part of the F1 community all over.
While Ricciardo has been involved in just one major crash on the track this season(the one in Baku when Verstappen rammed into his back), he has been involved in a rather major one off the track while doing some babysitting duties.
The kid with Ricciardo in the video was playing with a car whilst Ricciardo tried to film it.
The kid then ended up crashing the car on the floor with Ricciardo bursting into laughter.
The kid then tried to grab hold of the car, before ‘crashing’ it again, with Ricciardo bursting into further laughter.
Check out the video:

Ricciardo teased his fans today with a message about the upcoming Russian GP, one which he teased about missing, with the AFL finals in Melbourne this Saturday. Ricciardo is a West coast Eagles fan and they have reached the finals this time round.
Next week: Melbourne or Russia? Decisions… 🤔 go you good things @WestCoastEagles
