While a switch to Red Bull to replace Sergio Perez has not been ruled out, former McLaren star Mark Blundell believes that such a move would be a huge risk to Ricciardo's F1 career as it would limit his options should he fail to beat three-time world champion Verstappen.

Daniel Ricciardo’s Formula 1 fate seems all but sealed after contract details were revealed. The Australian’s future behind the wheel of the Visa CashApp RB appears to be on its last legs with Red Bull reportedly set to drop the axe following the Singapore Grand Prix.

The notion of a former Formula 1 driver transitioning to NASCAR is not without precedent. Racing legends such as Juan Pablo Montoya, Kamui Kobayashi, Kimi Raikkonen, and Jacques Villeneuve have all done the same thing. And if you already know of the Australian's love for the United States, his interest in NASCAR will not come as a surprise.

And he’s done it all with his trademark smile spread across his face.

Despite not always seeing eye to eye, Yuki Tsunoda reveals he respects teammate Daniel Ricciardo the most of any driver on the grid.
