Daniel Ricciardo has always been popular in Formula 1 for his flamboyant character. Even though the McLaren driver has seen a decline in his performance in the sport of late, that hasn’t wiped the smile he has on his face. Amid all this, some unseen photo of the Honey Badger surfaced online that shows Ricciardo taking up an interesting role.

Ricciardo has always been an interesting personality in F1. The man from the Land Down Under has even managed to grab appraisal from people from rival teams as well as fans of rival teams due to his charismatic nature. What amazed the fans more were the photos of Daniel Ricciardo from Red Bull boss Christian Horner and Spice Girl Geri Horner’s wedding.

In a series of photos shared on Twitter, Ricciardo was seen driving the wedding car of the Red Bull boss and Spice Girl when they got married with a star-studded guest list in 2015.

Despite the wedding being a family event, it certainly wasn’t in the case of Horner and his family. The Red Bull boss’s family did not approve of the wedding, as they were unhappy with Christian Horner’s actions prior to the relationship with Geri Horner.

Christian Horner believes Daniel Ricciardo needs a reset

The Red Bull boss shared some exciting seasons with the Australian driver when he drove for the Austrian team. Considering the current situation, Horner has shared words that could provide a much-needed impetus for the Perth driver.

In the official Beyond The Grid podcast by F1, the Briton boss shared, “It’s obviously been not a great experience for him [at McLaren] for whatever reason and you just have to think back to some of the drives he did for us, some of the wins he had, the podiums, some of the stunning overtakes he was capable of. That’s still in there, I’m sure, and it just needs a bit of a reset.”
