“What’s something surprising you have learned about each other as teammates?” asked a fan, to which Daniel hilariously replied, “Lando is probably the easiest person to make laugh. I literally have a video on my phone of him not being able to not laugh, sorry, continuous laughter, so at a point where he is crying for 6 and a half minutes. Legit, I think 6 minutes, 35 the video. “

Questioned whether Ricciardo will post it on social media, he said, “It’s too long, it’s boring. Yeah, he laughs like a click of a finger.” Well, we are sure the fans would love to take a look at the video.

This is also not the first time we have seen the Australian make Norris laugh. F1 fans must remember the 2019 British Grand Prix press conference when the Briton could not control his laughter.

“I felt like a lot of people probably wanted us to be best friends from day one. And it was something that we couldn’t really force and it did take a bit of time to really create a good relationship.”

“But in saying that, there wasn’t tension or anything, it was just that we were trying to figure each other out. Currently, where I sit today, I think we have a very good relationship,” revealed the 32-year-old driver.
