People have looked at Daniel Ricciardo and his iconic podium antics with both revolt and awe. Aston Martin software developer stands with the latter as after completing a marathon, he may have taken it a step further than Ricciardo.
George Crawford took on the London Marathon in F1 style. The Aston Martin team member ran the race in Lance Stroll’s racing suit; helmet, gloves, and all! With speed in his outfit, Crawford now holds a Guinness World Record, having completed the marathon in 3 hours and 58 minutes.

An impressive time, what remains concerning is the almost four hours’ worth of sweat in the shoes! Having accomplished the feat, Crawford poured himself a shoey and gulped it down in true Daniel Ricciardo style.
Shoeys have taken the McLaren fanbase by storm, especially after Ricciardo’s win in Monza; fans flooded the internet with videos of them drinking out of their shoes as well. The Aussie would appreciate the admiration from the Aston Martin crew member; foot juices all the way!
Daniel Ricciardo explains the shoey
In a recent interview, Ricciardo explained the motivation behind his famed shoey. “I feel like that was a way to break a little bit, the mold. There was too often where I saw a podium that was just not that exciting and I was like dude, you’re on the podium. You’ve won or you’ve come top three in a Formula One race. Show some emotion.”
Daniel’s shoeys have clearly made their way beyond F1. Not only in the London Marathon but also in Moto GP.
