Flashback: When Ricciardo and Norris caused press conference chaos

Sam Hall Thursday 14 May 2020 14:30

Daniel Ricciardo will partner Lando Norris at McLaren for the 2021 Formula 1 season and one thing is certain, there will be laughs on tap.

Two of the biggest jokers in the paddock, Ricciardo and Norris have shared a fair amount of amusing moments together.

Only recently, Ricciardo jokingly described Norris as "the tech nerd of modern-day society".

But none was as entertaining as their exchange during a press conference ahead of the 2019 British Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton was talking about his inability to grow a 'Nigel Mansell-like' moustache when Ricciardo leant over to Norris to utter a comment that sent the McLaren driver into hysterics.

"He's crying!!"@DanielRicciardo has made us all laugh over the years... and it was all too much to handle for @LandoNorris in today's press conference!
