After being a motor racing nomad, Daniel Ricciardo says being back in the Red Bull stable with Formula One’s newest team, the now-rebranded Visa Cash App RB, has been like coming home. Ricciardo won seven races while at Red Bull from 2014 to 2018. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Last year he joined the Red Bull<\/a>-owned AlphaTauri team, and he is now tipped as a possible replacement for Mexican Sergio Perez to partner world champion Max Verstappen in 2025.<\/p>\n

“Getting back into Red Bull and the family, I feel so much at home, so the truth is this is where I want to be,” Ricciardo told Reuters.<\/p>\n

“I am embracing it a lot more because a year ago I was unsure if I would race Formula One ever again …” “Deep down I knew I wasn’t done but there was no guarantee I would be offered a seat again.”<\/p>\n

For now, a new name, look and sponsors have fuelled new ambitions of moving up the grid for Ricciardo and his Japanese team mate Yuki Tsunoda.<\/p>\n

Visa Cash App RB<\/a> completed its makeover on Thursday with a splashy launch of its new livery, smack in the middle of Super Bowl week.<\/p>\n

“I think it is a year when the team takes that step and (is) not seen as a Red Bull junior team anymore,” said Ricciardo, who is an NFL fan and attended last year’s Super Bowl but will miss Sunday’s as he prepares for testing.<\/p>\n

“It’s a team that is going to stand on its own two feet and hopefully make some noise.” While it is still a little over three weeks until the roar of engines is heard at the season opener in Bahrain, there has been plenty of buzz in the F1 world.<\/p>\n

Mercedes’ seven-times world champion Lewis Hamilton has announced a shock move to Ferrari in 2025, while all of motorsport is awaiting the outcome of an investigation of Red Bull principal Christian Horner for an unspecified complaint.<\/p>\n

Ricciardo is close to Horner but had no comment on his former boss’s situation. He was also vague about his own possible move to Red Bull, but not about Hamilton.<\/p>\n

“I always thought there was the possibility he could race for Ferrari so I would say it didn’t shock me,” he said. “I think it was the timing, that one threw me a little bit.<\/p>\n

“But seeing him in red? No, I can definitely understand it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
