Daniel Ricciardo out of retirement as HUGE contract news announced

Sport — 20/06/2025 · 0 Comment

Former F1 driver Daniel Ricciardo has dropped the details of his latest project following his exit from the high-octane sport.

The fan-favourite racer was dropped by Red Bull’s junior F1 team Racing Bulls after last year’s Singapore Grand Prix, and has pursued a variety of partnerships since his departure.

Though his social media appearances may be few and far between, they have offered fans a glimpse into what life after F1 looks like for Ricciardo.

Between poking fun at former Red Bull colleague Max Verstappen and promoting launches of his wine company and clothing line, Ricciardo has certainly pursued a diverse array of projects to keep him busy during his time away from the sport.

Whilst many fans had been hoping a return to F1 was on the cards for Ricciardo, the eight-time grand prix winner seems entirely uninterested in pursuing new projects on the track.

Last year, one bold fan even asked Ricciardo to his face whether he fancied joining the new Cadillac F1 team ahead of their first season in the sport in 2026, to which he replied: “Nah, I’m done.”

For now and quite possibly the future, fans simply have to adjust to seeing Ricciardo as the face of many of his own companies, or others such as Beats and now dabble, with a return to the sport even in a punditry role now potentially years away.
