I Saved Daniel Ricciardo’s Formula 1 Career

In 2014, Daniel Ricciardo was on top of the world. He had just won three races in his debut season with Red Bull, and finished 3rd in the standings behind only the two Mercedes cars. Many had him tipped to be a future world champion, but it has all gone very badly wrong
A very unlucky season in 2018 mixed with the fact that Red Bull were heavily backing there new prospect Max Verstappen led Daniel to take a massive leap and leave the team that gave him his first chance.
After a semi successful stint with Renault Daniel left in 2021 to join Mclaren, and despite being there only race winner since 2012, they paid him $18 Million just to not race for them next year.
Now, halfway through the 2023 season Daniel finds himself back at Alpha Tauri, a team he drove for in 2012. With the potential promise of a Red Bill seat for 2024, can Daneil put on the performance of his life to take his old seat back, and once he gets there could he really become a world champion?

Bro what a cinematic experience that was…. A truly magnificent effort from you there, like damn 26 Minutes??

[@handguideline]

i'm genuinely wondering if you do any kind of writing before you start editing because your video pacing is immaculate! the way you balance race summary and actual driving is really fresh and tbh i didn't watch this vid earlier because the thumbnail made me think it was some F1 manager vid lol

[@gwats]

i always have a general idea of what i want to happen in the vids but i normally just script it as i go along, bit of a weird process but i always enjoy it

[@distkio]

Hey, it's very nice content 🔥 I wanna ask you how did you actually manage to change Daniel's career? I mean do you use some mods or something? Cause in F1 (in my case, the F1 22) we cannot transfer the driver to another team. I and my friends really want to see Sebastian Vettel returning to RedBull with the RB18 or Fernando Alonso joining Mercedes and much other crazy stuff that I and my friends will do, so I'd be really grateful if you could answer my question. Again, the video is really good, you're cooking it, bro🔥🔥
