The racing weekend is upon us as the traveling circus makes its way to the American subcontinent. The upcoming United States Grand Prix on the Circuit of The Americas is slowly calling for all drivers to make their way to America. However, McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo is already in the United States and making himself at home.

We are all aware of Daniel Ricciardo’s love for Buffalo Bills. Ricciardo shared a polaroid of himself and three friends, wearing a Buffalo Bills jersey with “Bills Mafia” as a caption.

However, before the McLaren pilot sat down to relax and catch a game, the Australian spent some time thrill-seeking. The Honey Badger took to the waters to quench his thrill-seeking thirst. Ricciardo got on a jet ski to enjoy his time off before the race in Austin, Texas.

Ricciardo got his hands on a Sea Doo RXP-X Apex as his ride of choice for his time out in the water. Ricciardo captioned the post, “Lil look back. Hey how are ya. Had a blast riding the @seadoo RXP-X Apex. The power on this thing is no joke!”

There might be some truth in the jet ski’s power claim as a video shared on Twitter by a fan showcases exactly that.

At the end of the video, a satisfied Ricciardo breaks into laughter before claiming, “this thing is so good.” Although as things stand, Ricciardo might get plenty of time to enjoy his jet ski soon.

Daniel Ricciardo gives an honest take on his future

The Australian might be enjoying his time with the circus as much as he can because, as per Ricciardo, he won’t be on the grid in 2023.

Ricciardo revealed, “But I think the reality is now I won’t be on the grid in ’23, I think it’s now just trying to set up for ’24.

“I think that there could be some better opportunities then so that’s really what all this confirms and now where the sights are set.”
