Stress is listed as one of the root causes of hair loss. Daniel Ricciardo is arguably going through one of the worst phases of his Formula 1 career. After failing to lift his career up during the 2 years in McLaren, the Aussie driver is taking a year off from the sport. His latest appearance gave a glimpse of what looks like a receding hairline. Poor Honey Badger had to endure the mocking of his own fans as they came across the picture.

Ricciardo joined McLaren in 2021 from Renault. He arrived with hopes of getting a much-needed boost for his career but things did not go as per plans. While he managed to score a win in 2021, he finished behind his young teammate Lando Norris on the points table. As experts expected him to come back stronger in 2022, things got even worse.

Fans discover their funny bone as Daniel Ricciardo catches them by surprise with his new look

To rekindle his love for F1 and gather his thoughts, Ricciardo decided to take a year off from regular action in F1. However, he did not plan on going completely MIA and took up the role of a third driver at Red Bull. Needless to say, the last few months have been very stressful for him and that could well be the reason for what looks like a receding hairline in his latest photo.

Have a look at how fans on Twitter reacted to the picture. One even compared the look with Justin Timberlake’s back in the day.
