Formula 1 fans have been whipped into a frenzy following the release of an official promotional video which appeared to feature ex-racer Daniel Ricciardo.
The clip in question emerged on social media in the build-up to this weekend’s Spanish Grand Prix alongside the announcement of a multi-year agreement which will see PepsiCo become an official partner of the sport until 2030.
Could Ricciardo be set for Cadillac seat?
Ricciardo was replaced by Liam Lawson at Racing Bulls midway through last season after a largely underwhelming stint with the team.
Having been unable to secure a seat for the 2025 campaign, many believed Ricciardo’s time in F1 was all over, with the man himself previously stating he was ‘done’ with the sport.
But speculation over his future has refused to go away, and he has been strongly linked as an option for US outfit Cadillac, who will make their debut on the grid next season.
Ricciardo has certainly enjoyed his time away from the limelight, putting more focus into promoting his fashion brand, Enchante, as well as featuring in several hilarious adverts for his own wine collection, DR3.
