WATCH: Ricciardo talks about the ladies’ toilet incident with Raikkonen

Daniel Ricciardo seems to be going through the motions with Red Bull this season, after having announced his switch to Renault from 2019.

Ricciardo has found it tough to find reliability and performance in the last few races and with nothing really significant to play for, the Aussie would be desperately waiting for the 2019 season to come.

In the meantime, Ricciardo is going to provide us with some on track action and some off it as well.

Recently, on the West Coast Eagles podcast Ricciardo revealed a rather funny incident that took place when he visited the restroom right before the race.

During the podcast he was asked if he ever went to the toilet in cockpit, to which Ricciardo said that he did try peeing in the bottle once, but couldn’t really go through with it. He actually had to do that because of the long queues right before a practice session, qualifying or raceday.

And while speaking about those queues, Ricciardo spoke about how he once visited the ladies’ room as the queue to the males’ room was a little too much.

But right as Ricciardo was coming out of the restroom, he saw Raikkonen, who took a jibe at the Aussie for using the female restroom.

Ricciardo said that he kind of took it personally, as Raikkonen doesn’t often talk to fellow drivers.

“One day I am going to show him that I am a man” said Ricciardo.
