It is relatively fresh news that the Formula 1 World Championship will expand with a new team in 2026. Daniel Ricciardo may be a returning member…
The German magazine Bild provided very specific information regarding the fact that the team, which started as the Andretti project and has now transformed into Cadillac's, will mobilize serious forces to acquire Daniel Ricciardo, who was dropped after the Singapore Grand Prix. The Germans believe that the Australian driver is the best option for the starting team, especially in terms of PR value. According to their writing, if the Americans choose Ricciardo, it would catapult their yet non-existent popularity index from 0 to 100. They think it is very important for the entry team to start with an experienced driver, which is also a possibility with the chosen one. What Daniel Ricciardo's response to all this will be is still unknown; for now, he is enjoying the freedom that has fallen upon him, but he also has other options if he wishes to continue his racing career. Toyota is enticing him with a $10 million salary to compete on two fronts, in NASCAR and Australian Supercars, thereby increasing the popularity of the Japanese brand.
Who knows how it will turn out, but we think Danny Ric still has an unresolved matter in F1…
