Is Daniel Ricciardo the new Lewis Hamilton when it comes to celebrity friendships?

Are the championship hopes over for the Buffalo Bills? No, not so easily. Despite losing key receivers Stefon Diggs and Gave Davis, the fans aren’t giving up on the championship dreams. Moreover, with Josh Allen on the frontline, his dearest buddy Daniel Ricciardo has complete faith in the quarterback. With the Firebaugh native leading the Bills, Ricciardo hopes for another playoff run and a potential Super Bowl appearance.

Daniel Ricciardo is a known NFL fan. He often appears in the stadium, immersed in the enthusiastic crowd. His love for American football helped him to have an immediate click with Josh Allen in 2019. Since then, they’ve been best friends. His high hopes for the Bills got Ricciardo traveling to MetLife Stadium in 2022 and London last season to see Allen play, even catching passes from him before one of the games. Moreover, the Aussie wants to join the Bills Mafia by attending a game at Highmark Stadium before it’s replaced.

Now, taking their friendship to a new level, the F1 star and Josh Allen have come up with a spontaneous project. What would their friendship look like if they bought a racehorse together? Well, to know the answer we have to look out for a new short film ‘The Legend of Ricallen’, which will premiere on Wednesday, at 10:00 am ET and 7 a.m. PT on LegendsOfRicallen.com. Ricciardo called the film “ridiculous in all the good ways.”

He further told Bleacher Report, “We were just laughing the whole day. It was so ridiculous, and we had so much fun working together.” It seems like Daniel is taking inspiration from Lewis Hamilton! While the latter made an entire commercial movie, Danny Ric’s first work would be a short film.

The film has been done in partnership with Beats by Dre. The story revolves around Josh Allen and Daniel Ricciardo’s adventurous journey to find the perfect racehorse. While talking about the music in the project, the Aussie said, “The partnership has been really fun for me because it’s something that I love and use a lot.” Danny is fond of Beats, he further added, “Music for me plays such a part in my racing. It can help me wind down. It can help me on the grid by shutting out the noise or pumping me up.” The VCARB racer tells how Beats has become a part of his daily life, he feels happy to have worked with them for the short film.

Fans love to see F1 drivers and other athletes venture into different spectrums outside their domain. This reveals a new side to their personality. In this case, Honey Badger’s love for music and friendship with the NFL star has created a unique project that reeks of passion and camaraderie. With the teaser out, the project looks pretty good.
