Daniel Ricciardo and Brendon Hartley jamming in a car (2015)

iframe

Daniel Ricciardo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-ricciardo/] considered himself as a heavy metal music fan. Former Toro Rosso driver, Brendon Hartley [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brendon_Hartley] can also attest for the same. Recently, video footage from back in 2015 saw the Aussie and the Kiwi rocking out in a road car while driving. The song they were jamming out to was called Happiness By The Kilowatt by the band Alexisonfire. The band is a post-hardcore band hailing from Canada. In all honesty, it was actually quite hilarious to watch Hartley and Ricciardo scream their lungs out while rocking out. However, coming to the present day, Hartley has been dropped by Toro Rosso [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/toro-rosso/] for the 2019 season. Meanwhile, Ricciardo jumped ship from Red Bull [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/] to Renault [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/renault/] to partner Nico Hulkenberg [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nico-hulkenberg/] for the upcoming season. The Australian driver admitted that he needed a new environment which was why he elected to leave.
