Fans are guaranteed entertainment when Daniel Ricciardo is in the pits or on the track. His stint in F1 might be coming to an end but that doesn’t stop him from trying to bring a smile to fans’ faces with his vintage style. And when teammate Lando Norris is around, the banter is unreal.

Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris put in a top-notch performance to finish P5 and P4 respectively at Marina Bay. This allowed McLaren to leapfrog Alpine in the constructors’ championship.
Daniel Ricciardo, after the race, said, “I feel with the result, you know, I certainly feel good – it’s been a long time. That was a good situation for us and finally, got back into the points, and obviously a very big day for the team. So, we leave Sunday happy. It’s been a long time.”
It wasn’t as straightforward as it seemed though. The conditions were damp and tricky because of the heavy downpour just before the start of the race. This also forced race directors to delay the race, leaving the fans disappointed. However, this delay presented Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo with an opportunity to play ball in McLaren’s corridor.
