For Daniel Ricciardo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-ricciardo/], this hasn’t been the homecoming he would’ve had in mind. The Aussie did not take part in a press conference scheduled after Renault revealed the R.S.20. The Coronavirus impact resulted in the French team excusing both drivers from media duties following the car launch. DANIEL RICCIARDO AND ESTEBAN OCON MISS THEIR SCHEDULED PRESS CONFERENCE Renault [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/renault/]’s move is understandable, considering the epidemic may or may not have spread to the paddock. Earlier in the day, F1 team members displayed symptoms of Coronavirus. 3 team members from McLaren and Haas are currently in self-isolation after showing symptoms of the epidemic. This has spooked the paddock and F1 is currently on high alert to prevent the disease from spreading. Fans were in for some bad news earlier in the day as track authorities have cancelled autograph sessions. Instead, these have been replaced by Q&A sessions to keep drivers and fans safe. Apart from this, F1 teams are enforcing a ‘safe distance’ between drivers and the media for any interactions. Cyril Abiteboul [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Cyril-Abiteboul-1.jpg] Speaking at Renault’s livery and car reveal, team principal Cyril Abiteboul said: “Obviously as we were planning this event, we were expecting a little bit more of a light atmosphere, “Usually it’s a moment that we all love when we are racing in Formula 1, so I wanted to make a mention of that. “I also wanted to say that our drivers were supposed to be with us for that event, but due to the situation, we’ve excused them from the occasion. “I hope you understand why we are taking such measures.” ALBERT PARK CIRCUIT – FAR FROM A FESTIVE ATMOSPHERE The AGPC also acknowledged the 3 team personnel who are currently in self-isolation. Track authorities released a statement claiming they would monitor the situation and keep the FIA and F1 in touch. A usually vibrant Albert Park Circuit [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Park_Circuit] now bears the look of a ghost town. Fans can only hope that more negative developments in the paddock don’t jeopardize the race weekend. The fast-spreading epidemic has led to a sombre atmosphere in what was otherwise a carnival for F1 fans. With the winter break nearly over, fans are ready to witness the return of the pinnacle of motorsport. 

Renault drivers - Daniel Ricciardo and Esteban Ocon were excused from a press
conference that was scheduled after the R.S.20 launch.

<h2><strong>Australian Grand Prix - 2021 Latest News, Winners, Qualifying, Circuits, Track</strong></h2>
The Australian Grand Prix technically originated in 1953 at the Albert Park Circuit, and Doug Whiteford took the win. However, it was a non-championship race, and the Australian Grand Prix was not integrated until 1985 in Adelaide. Williams driver Keke Rosberg became the first Australian Grand Prix winner in the F1 championship.

The first F1 championship winner at Albert Park was Damon Hill in 1996, again for Williams F1. Since then, Formula One has been a regular visitor in Melbourne. It is also worth mentioning that the Albert Park circuit has been the season-opening race, 21 times out of 24 races.

The 2021 event was originally scheduled to open the season in March but has been moved to November due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions.
<h2>Effect of COVID-19</h2>
The Australian Grand Prix was supposed to kick off the 2020 Formula One Season. However, the race down under was called off before it could really take off. The Pandemic meant a delayed start to the F1 season, with Albert Park, unfortunately, missing out on the 2020 calendar.

Since 1996 it has been held at the Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne every year, with the exception of 2020 when the race was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

<h2><strong>Australian Grand Prix Circuit Details </strong></h2>
The circuit utilizes parts of the public roads surrounding the Albert Park Lake. The road sections were rebuilt ahead of the 1996 race to ensure consistency and smoothness. This is where the Albert Park circuit differs from other street-going circuits.

The track itself appears fast and relatively easy to drive. The drivers have even praised the circuit for being easy to learn and achieve competitive times. However, the flat terrain around the lake, coupled with a track design that features few true straights, means that the track is not conducive to overtaking.

Each year, most of the motorsport infrastructure is constructed two months ahead of the Grand Prix weekend. Following that, they are removed within six weeks.

The land around the circuit has restricted access during that entire period. However, there usually is some amount of dissent from local residents. Nevertheless, the event is reasonably popular in Melbourne and Australia.
<h2><strong>Australian Grand Prix Tickets</strong></h2>
Tickets are mostly available on the <a href="https://f1experiences.com/2021-australian-grand-prix" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">official Formula One website</a>.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Daniel Ricciardo 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Daniel Ricciardo is an Australian racing driver currently driving for the Visa Cash App Racing Bulls F1 Team. He made his Formula 1 debut at the British GP in 2011, driving for Hispania Racing. His first F1 win came in the 2014 season at the Canadian GP in his debut season for Red Bull Racing. Ricciardo has accumulated 8 race wins over the course of his career, with the 2018 Monaco GP win being the feather in his cap.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Daniel Ricciardo's Career Timeline</h2>
One of the best overtakers in the game, Daniel Ricciardo, made his Formula 1 debut in 2011 with HRT. A year later, he moved to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/toro-rosso/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Toro Rosso</a> alongside Jean-Eric Vergne. After two years with the Faenza-based team, he graduated to Red Bull and partnered withÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Sebastian Vettel</a>. He remained with the team after Vettel's departure in 2015, this time teaming up withÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniil-kvyat/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Daniil Kvyat</a>. The two raced together until mid-2016 when Kvyat was demoted to Toro Rosso and Max Verstappen took his place.

In mid-2018, Daniel Ricciardo announced his departure from Red Bull after an association of five seasons. Ricciardo joined Renault in 2019, partnering with Nico Hulkenberg. However, it came as a shock when Ricciardo affirmed that he wouldn't be extending his contract with the French outfit.

Many believed Ricciardo would eventually join Ferrari - given his hunger and passion to win the world championship, not to mention his Italian heritage. Sadly, it never came to pass. The Australian was in talks with Ferrari, but the negotiations never amounted to anything serious. He was beaten to a seat at the Scuderia by McLaren's Carlos Sainz.

After a largely unsuccessful stint with Renault, The Honey Badger announced his switch to McLaren for the 2021 season. Ricciardo teamed up with Lando Norris over his first stint. Despite largely trailing the Briton, Ricciardo managed to break the shackles at the Italian Grand Prix by claiming his first F1 victory since the 2018 Monaco Grand Prix and the first for McLaren since the 2012 Brazilian GP.

After a string of disappointing results during the 2022 season, McLaren terminated his contract a year in advance and, soon later after the conclusion of the Japanese GP qualifying, he announced his departure from the F1 grid for the 2023 season. He went on to take up the role of the Red Bull 3rd driver. However, following the release of Nyck de Vries from his AlphaTauri seat, Ricciardo was announced as his replacement, and the Hungarian GP marked his return to AlphaTauri and Formula 1.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Daniel Ricciardo's Personal Life</h2>
For someone who's quite open and active across social media, Ricciardo is quite reserved about his personal life. The Australian prefers to keep his family and relationships away from the limelight. Daniel's father is Giuseppe â€œJoeâ€ Ricciardo and his mother is Grace Ricciardo. His father was born in Ficarra, Italy, and moved to Australia aged 7. His mother is Australian-born, however, she is of Italian descent as well. Daniel's sister's name is Michelle. Daniel's father Giuseppe is a former driver and has raced at theÂ Barbagallo Raceway in Western Australia.

There were rumors of Ricciardo dating an Australian model Jessica Gomes in 2018, but the Honey Badger <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6754573/Daniel-Ricciardo-29-denies-dating-Jessica-Gomes-34-admits-rumours-positive.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">denied</a> the same. Since 2022, Daniel Ricciardo has been in a <a href="https://people.com/who-is-heidi-berger-daniel-ricciardo-8349982" target="_blank" rel="noopener">relationship with Heidi Berger</a>. Heidi is the daughter of former Austrian F1 driver Gerhard Berger and her mother is former Portuguese model Ana Corvo. Gerhard has driven for F1 teams such as Ferrari, McLaren, and Benetton. Heidi is an actress and has starred in the soap opera <em>A Ãšnica Mulher</em>.

Apart from F1, Ricciardo follows the NFL, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-nlf-afc-news-alphatauri-news-how-did-daniel-ricciardo-and-josh-allen-become-friends-what-nfl-team-does-the-f1-star-support/">Buffalo Bills is his favorite team</a>. He owns a Bills jersey and is great friends with Josh Allen. Ricciardo also has an impressive tattoo collection, which is pretty ironic, considering his fear of needles.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Daniel Ricciardo: Stats and on-trackÂ </strong><b>Achievements</b></h2>
A ninth-placed finish saw Ricciardo score his first set of points in Australia in 2012. His first podium came at the Spanish GP in 2014 when he finished third. He followed it up with another third-place finish in Monaco. The Perth native snatched his maiden win at the 2014 Canadian Grand Prix. Ricciardo went on to win two more races that year, in Hungary and Belgium.

While Ricciardo wowed fans with his incredible racecraft, he also has a unique taste in helmets. Daniel Ricciardo's 2019 lid, with the wordsÂ <em>"Stop Being Them"</em> caught everyone's attention and instantly became a fan favorite. His 2020 helmet is an evolution of the 2019 lid, with some crazy color combinations that truly stand out. It was a similar crazy design in 2021 as well, with the theme being 'All good, all ways'.

During the rest of his career, he took five more wins. They were in Malaysia 2016, Azerbaijan 2017, China 2018, Monaco 2018, and the latest victory arrived at Monza 2021. His highest position in the Drivers' Championship has been third in 2014 and 2016.

In a career spanning nearly a decade, Ricciardo has competed in 214 Grand Prix weekends, winning eight races and clinching 32 podiums. The Australian has scored 1326 points in his F1 career till the end of the 2023 season.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Daniel Ricciardo: Net Worth</h2>
According toÂ <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/daniel-ricciardo/?sh=15ac52677fe2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports</a>, Ricciardo had an annual salary of $27 million and earned an additional $2 million through endorsements as of 2020. He has a net worth of <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/race-car-drivers/daniel-ricciardo-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$50 million</a>.

In August 2018, Daniel Ricciardo signed a two-year contract with Renault that pays him an astonishingÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6025373/After-new-31M-deal-Renault-does-make-Daniel-Ricciardo-Australias-richest-sports-star.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$35 million</a> per year. Under his previous contract with Red Bull, he was making $6 million per year.

Daniel Ricciardo

Daniel Ricciardo 2024: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements Daniel Ricciardo is an Australian racing driver currently driving for the Visa Cash App Racing Bulls F1 Team. He made his Formula 1 debut at the British GP in 2011, driving for Hispania Racing. His first F1 win came in the 2014 season at the Canadian GP in his debut season for Red Bull Racing. Ricciardo has accumulated 8 race wins over the course of his career, with the 2018 Monaco GP win being the feather in his cap.

A year later, he moved to Toro Rosso alongside Jean-Eric Vergne. After two years with the Faenza-based team, he graduated to Red Bull and partnered withÂ Sebastian Vettel. He remained with the team after Vettel&#8217;s departure in 2015, this time teaming up withÂ Daniil Kvyat. The two raced together until mid-2016 when Kvyat was demoted to Toro Rosso and Max Verstappen took his place. In mid-2018, Daniel Ricciardo announced his departure from Red Bull after an association of five seasons. Ricciardo joined Renault in 2019, partnering with Nico Hulkenberg. However, it came as a shock when Ricciardo affirmed that he wouldn&#8217;t be extending his contract with the French outfit. Many believed Ricciardo would eventually join Ferrari &#8211; given his hunger and passion to win the world championship, not to mention his Italian heritage. Sadly, it never came to pass. The Australian was in talks with Ferrari, but the negotiations never amounted to anything serious. He was beaten to a seat at the Scuderia by McLaren&#8217;s Carlos Sainz. READ MORE &#8211;Â The Long List of Cars Owned and Driven by Daniel Ricciardo After a largely unsuccessful stint with Renault, The Honey Badger announced his switch to McLaren for the 2021 season. Ricciardo teamed up with Lando Norris over his first stint. Despite largely trailing the Briton, Ricciardo managed to break the shackles at the Italian Grand Prix by claiming his first F1 victory since the 2018 Monaco Grand Prix and the first for McLaren since the 2012 Brazilian GP. After a string of disappointing results during the 2022 season, McLaren terminated his contract a year in advance and, soon later after the conclusion of the Japanese GP qualifying, he announced his departure from the F1 grid for the 2023 season. He went on to take up the role of the Red Bull 3rd driver. However, following the release of Nyck de Vries from his AlphaTauri seat, Ricciardo was announced as his replacement, and the Hungarian GP marked his return to AlphaTauri and Formula 1. Daniel Ricciardo&#8217;s Personal Life For someone who&#8217;s quite open and active across social media, Ricciardo is quite reserved about his personal life. The Australian prefers to keep his family and relationships away from the limelight. Daniel&#8217;s father is Giuseppe â€œJoeâ€ Ricciardo and his mother is Grace Ricciardo. His father was born in Ficarra, Italy, and moved to Australia aged 7. His mother is Australian-born, however, she is of Italian descent as well. Daniel&#8217;s sister&#8217;s name is Michelle. Daniel&#8217;s father Giuseppe is a former driver and has raced at theÂ Barbagallo Raceway in Western Australia. There were rumors of Ricciardo dating an Australian model Jessica Gomes in 2018, but the Honey Badger denied the same. Since 2022, Daniel Ricciardo has been in a relationship with Heidi Berger. Heidi is the daughter of former Austrian F1 driver Gerhard Berger and her mother is former Portuguese model Ana Corvo. Gerhard has driven for F1 teams such as Ferrari, McLaren, and Benetton. Heidi is an actress and has starred in the soap opera A Ãšnica Mulher. READ MORE-How Expensive is Daniel Ricciardo&#8217;s Mansion in Los Angeles?

The Perth native snatched his maiden win at the 2014 Canadian Grand Prix. Ricciardo went on to win two more races that year, in Hungary and Belgium. While Ricciardo wowed fans with his incredible racecraft, he also has a unique taste in helmets. Daniel Ricciardo&#8217;s 2019 lid, with the wordsÂ &#8220;Stop Being Them&#8221; caught everyone&#8217;s attention and instantly became a fan favorite. His 2020 helmet is an evolution of the 2019 lid, with some crazy color combinations that truly stand out. It was a similar crazy design in 2021 as well, with the theme being &#8216;All good, all ways&#8217;.
