Breaking; Daniel Ricciardo reject fresh F1 OFFER following axe…

 

Daniel Ricciardo has received a fresh Formula 1 offer after being axed midway through the 2024 season.

 

The Australian star failed to impress Red Bull this season after he was consistently beaten by team-mate Yuki Tsunoda during his time at VCARB, prompting the hierarchy to make a driver swap.

Questions have since persisted over what could be next for the Australian and whether or not he will continue racing.

 

Alternative racing series have expressed their interest in the 35-year-old, with Australian Supercars Championship chief Shane Howard revealing that he would ‘welcome Ricciardo with open arms’ to the series.

 

However, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has provided his former driver with a fresh offer following his axe which could allow him to continue with the team.

Speaking at the US GP, Horner warned Ricciardo regarding retirement and once again reiterated that the offer is there for the Australian to take on some sort of role within the Red Bull team, particularly in the US.

 

“Daniel grew up with Red Bull. He’s taking some time out at the moment, but he’d be very welcome anytime to be part of whatever role he’s elected to want to get involved in,” Horner told the media.

 

“He has a massive profile, and you’re a long time retired.

 

“So, if he chose to want to get involved in some activities in the US in any way, it’s something we’d be very open to.”
