Nearly two weeks have gone by since Daniel Ricciardo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-ricciardo/] was confirmed to have gotten a drive at McLaren [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mclaren/] for 2021. That leaves a spot at Renault open for the 2021 season. So the big question that everyone at Renault would want to address, would be the driver that partners Esteban Ocon for 2021. The biggest name among drivers out of contract for 2021 would be Lewis Hamilton, the 6-time world champion. Now, hold your horses Renault fans. Ferrari has already locked its driver grid for 2021. Also, It seems highly unlikely that Lewis would leave Mercedes for Redbull. MARTIN BRUNDLE ON WHO SHOULD BE OCON’S PARTNER FOR 2021 So who else could possibly (realistically) partner Ocon for the Renault drive in 2021? Martin Brundle, the former F1 driver now turned commentator, speaking to Sky Sports [https://www.skysports.com] said,” If I was Renault, I would go for (they have got Ocon) a young guy. Maybe, after Leclerc,(somebody new) will have emerged by then, maybe George Russell [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/george-russell] will be in the marketplace. Somebody of that ilk.” [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/rn1.jpg] Martin Brundle also said that he expects more changes in regards to driver lineups for 2021. He further stated that the future of F1 is going to be all about young drivers. He recounted the likes of Charles Leclerc, Max Verstappen, George Russell, Lando Norris, and Alex Albon. Martin Brundle also gave a mention to Lewis Hamilton’s contract situation. WHAT SHOULD BE A PRIORITY FOR RENAULT? The reliability problems that the Renault team faced in the 2019 season are well documented and as such, they would have been looking to improve their cars for the upcoming F1 season. In my previous article, [https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-sports-news-f1-news-renault-cyril-abiteboul/] Renault’s F1 team principal, Cyril Abiteboul touched on the topic of having a better car to attract other drivers on the grid towards Renault. Martin Brundle echoed the same sentiment, he said,” They (Renault) should go and spend the 20-25 million Euros on infrastructure and make the car faster for the future.” Clearly, it looks like the Renault team have got their priorities straight. They now know what to do so as to improve for the upcoming season as well as attract drivers for the 2021 season. 

F1 commentator and former driver,Martin Brundle has his say on who might partner
Ocon in 2021 and what problems Renault need to address moving forward.

<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.

[caption id="attachment_2281676" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-2281676 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-10-22T155101Z_1883919512_UP1EJAM1810EM_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-F1-USA.jpg" alt="Daniel Ricciardo" width="1920" height="1400" /> Formula One F1 - United States Grand Prix - Circuit of the Americas, Austin, Texas, U.S. - October 22, 2023 AlphaTauri's Daniel Ricciardo is pictured wearing a cowboy hat ahead of the race REUTERS/Brian Snyder[/caption]
<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. In 2021, with McLaren, Ricciardo became the 7th highest-earning F1 driver on the grid, with a salary of $17 million per year. However, over the 2021 season, Ricciardo has <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.gq.com.au/fitness/sport/f1-driver-salaries-2022/image-gallery/959853345554bc750aa6609f94994634?pos=7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a>Â taken a step back with a salary of $15 million.

In November 2018, Daniel spentÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7642301/Daniel-Ricciardos-lavish-13million-Hollywood-mansion.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$13 million</a>Â to buy a mansion in Beverly Hills.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Daniel Ricciardo's Car Collection</h2>
Daniel Ricciardo boasts of a unique collection of cars. Being one of the best-paid drivers on the grid, Ricciardo has splurged the cash on exquisite sports cars. He owns a McLaren 720s which was a gift to himself after his win at the Italian GP in 2021. The McLaren 720s comes with a price tag of $299,000. The Honey Badger's garage also houses a Porsche 918 Spyder worth $845,000. His 599 horsepower-producing Porsche has a white metallic finish to it. Additionally, the Australian owns a 2016 Aston Martin Vantage worth $300,000 and has a 5.2 liter AE31 twin-turbocharged V12 engine. Another Aston and Ricciardo's prized possession is a $2.6 million Aston Martin Valkyrie which is powered by a 6.5 liter V12 and produces an astonishing 1100 hp. It can go from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds. However, the most special car for Riccardo is his $7,540 Toyota Hilux which was gifted to him by his parents in 2006.

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.

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.
