Ricciardo contemplates F1 exit strategy
Daniel Ricciardo thinks after life after F1
Daniel Ricciardo reveals what retirement would look like for the Australian when he decides to call time on his Formula One career.
Ricciardo enters the 2020 F1 season as the fifth most experienced driver currently racing in the championship. Entering his tenth season, Ricciardo could be forgiven for contemplating an exit strategy should Renault fail to show signs of improvement.
“Once I’ve burnt myself out from racing, I think I’ll want to step away,” Ricciardo told TheCheckeredFlag. “Another thing is, I’ve always had other interests growing up. I love racing, but I grew up playing other sports too.
“It’d be nice to step away from racing, after putting everything into it because then I could end that chapter and think, ‘Awesome, that part of my life is done’. So we’ll see what happens.
“But, more than anything, I definitely have an interest to do something different, whether that’s in fashion or music, I don’t know.
“I don’t see myself being tied down to this sport all my life. It’s certainly been my passion my whole life, but I’d love to do something else successful other than racing cars.“
