Ricciardo rings in the New Year from the half court!

New McLaren man Daniel Ricciardo enjoyed an auspicious start to the New Year, although his first claim to fame for 2021 was on a basketball court rather than a racing track.

The Aussie celebrated the year's new beginning with friends in sunny California and worked off the festive toxins from the day on a basketball court.

At the outset, in the video below posted on Instagram, a cocky Ricciardo showed that he means business in 2021, while Le Bron James himself will have been impressed by the Honey Badger's wicked finesse from the half court.
