Relatively recent news is that the Formula 1 World Championship will be expanded by a new team in 2026. Daniel Ricciardo could be its returning member…
The German magazine Bild has brought concrete information that the team, which started as an Andretti project and has now transformed into Cadillac, is mobilizing considerable forces to acquire Daniel Ricciardo, who was fired after the Singapore Grand Prix. The Germans believe that the Australian pilot is the best choice for the starting team, if only in terms of PR value. According to them, if the Americans were to choose Ricciardo, it would catapult their previously non-existent popularity from 0 to 100. According to them, it would be very important for the new team to start with an experienced racer, which could also be possible with the chosen one. How Daniel Ricciardo will react to this is not yet known, he is currently enjoying the freedom that has fallen into his lap, but he also has other options if he wants to continue his racing career. Toyota is tempting him with a salary of $ 10 million to race on two fronts, in NASCAR and Australian Supercars, and thereby increase the popularity of the Japanese brand.
Who knows how it will turn out, but we think Danny Ric still has unfinished business in F1...
