Ricciardo ‘danger’ on karts
It is precisely in this context that Verstappen was ‘afraid’ of Ricciardo, smiling as always but particularly ‘unfair’ with his rivals, to the point of sending them into a spin after some moves carried out on purpose, entertaining the fans in an atmosphere of pure celebration and fun: “The race started quite well, but then Daniel decided to be a terrorist, literally trying to ‘kill’ everyone on the trail“Verstappen commented smiling.

Greetings from Marc Marquez
These are the words with which the eight-time world champion bid farewell to Honda: “CAs you know, this year is very special for me, as Honda and I will part ways. However, we will see if our paths cross again in the future. Certainly in these 11 years, with 6 world titles won together, we have achieved something fantastic. For me it has always been a pleasure to be part of this big family. Repsol Honda Team is the team of my career, a team made up of people I will never forget. As you know, my goal is to win again and therefore I had to look for the best solution to achieve this goal, as I have always done in my career. I hope this isn’t my last Honda Thanks Day“.
