Having reportedly grown concerned over plans to install Max Verstappen as number one driver, Ricciardo stunned Red Bull and the wider F1 world last Friday when news broke.

Red Bull were particularly stunned - the team had even recorded a video message with the Australian to confirm he would remain in place!

So with his future sewn up, it's time for Ricciardo to let his hair down - and a trip to the City of Sin seems perfect for one of F1's most notorious party-goers.

Naturally, you know what Ricciardo plus alcoholic drinks means... a shoey!

Whether on an F1 podium, or at a Vegas pool party, Dan truly is the master.
