Classic video: Ricciardo and Verstappen face chaotic Christmas challenge

Ahead of Daniel Ricciardo's return to Red Bull as a reserve driver in 2023, now seems like a good time to relive one of his amusing off-track moments with Max Verstappen during his previous tenure with the team.

Ricciardo and Verstappen made for an entertaining line-up at the squad between 2016 and 2018, having often taken part in various challenges together.

One of these was a festive Game in 2016, a year in which Red Bull achieved a swift 1.92 second pit-stop.

The drivers were challenged to throw as many snowballs at each other as possible in that same time frame, with one arm behind their backs and without moving their feet. All while dressed as Santa and an elf too!

Who won? Watch the classic video below to find out...

Ecclestone in court for fraud pre-trial hearing

Former Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone has arrived in court in London for the latest hearing ahead of his fraud criminal trial later this year. Ecclestone, 92, served as F1 CEO, stepping down when Liberty Media took control of the series in late 2016, being given the title 'chairman emeritus'. United Kingdom tax authorities His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) have alleged that Ecclestone failed to declare more than $400 million held in a trust fund in Singapore. He faces one case of fraud by false representation between June 2013 and October 2016, and although he is yet to enter a plea, it is expected Ecclestone is to plead not guilty. He was joined at the pre- trial hearing at London's Southwark Crown Court by wife Fabiana, with the hearing being overseen by Mr Justice Bryan. The trial has been set for November 16, 2023 with a further hearing set for June 2023, with Ecclestone remaining on bail. Source: https://th

Bottas takes two-wheeled adventure in Imola replacement race

Image
Valtteri Bottas joined partner Tiffany Cromwell at a cycling race in Scotland after the cancellation of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. The race at Imola was called off early in the week after extensive rainfall led to flooding and landslides in the surrounding region. Alfa Romeo driver Bottas did not take the weekend off for relaxation ahead of the Monaco and Spanish Grands Prix double-header though, instead taking part in the Gralloch Gravel event – part of the UCI Gravel World Series. The Finn excelled to finish 114th out of over 1,000 entrants in the 113km race, though he was outshone by Cromwell, who triumphed in the Women's race.
