Scotty James’ family grew by one a couple of months ago when he decided to get married. With the Belgium GP just around the corner, Scotty James asked her mom the all-important questions. His mom chose to become a Daniel Ricciardo fanboy as she answered the question. However, she overlooked her family while doing so. What was the all-important question and what did Scotty James’ mom reply?

Chloe Stroll and Scotty James decided to get married a couple of months ago in Italy. Chloe Stroll is Lance Stroll’s sister and Lawrence Stroll’s daughter. It wasn’t a surprise to see some familiar faces from the F1 paddock at the wedding. Toto Wolff, Stefano Domenicali, and Daniel Ricciardo were among the ones who were spotted. However, Ricciardo’s appearance was not a surprise as he’s been very good friends with Scotty James for a long time.

Ricciardo played the role of the Groomsman at the wedding. If we look into it, Daniel Ricciardo is still just a friend whereas Lance Stroll is now family. Scotty James’ mother recently overlooked Family i.e. Lance Stroll and decided to become a Daniel Ricciardo fanboy. His mom recently suggested that a Daniel Ricciardo podium is incoming at Spa Francorchamps as she forgot to mention Lance Stroll. 

 In a recent video uploaded on Twitter, Scotty James asks her mom, “Do you want to have any say on what is going to happen this week in the race in Belgium?” To which she replied, “I think Daniel Ricciardo is going to get on the podium.” James then asked the all-important question about family: “What about Lance?” Her mother, correcting herself, said, “Well, and Lance.”

Nonetheless, we’d give the leeway to Scotty James’ mom. After all, everyone is a fan of Daniel Ricciardo and his huge smile that can brighten up anyone’s day. Let’s see what Daniel Ricciardo thinks of this weekend’s race.

According to Formula1.com, Daniel Ricciardo said, “I think this weekend is another challenge with, firstly, the weather, but then the Sprint format. There won’t be much messing around and then we’re obviously straight into business from tomorrow afternoon. The thought of that is exciting but I know I’ll have to be on it from the start. In saying that, it’s the same for everyone.”
