Every promise is a debt. Zak Brown he kept faith with his commitment after Daniel’s first podium (and first win) Ricciardo with the McLaren, which at Monza brought the English car back to the top step of the podium after almost nine years of abstinence. The US CEO has in fact made available to the Australian the Owned Chevrolet NASCAR with which Dale Earnhardt won the championship in 1984.
Earnhardt still represents the greatest automotive icon for Ricciardo, who also chose his Formula 1 race number (3) in his honor. In the morning in Austin, the former Red Bull enjoyed a few laps of the track behind the wheel of the historic NASCAR car at the Austin circuit: a good way to prepare for the two most important days of the United States Grand Prix.
A deal’s a deal. 🤝 @DanielRicciardo on track in Dale Earnhardt Sr’s 1984 Wrangler Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Owned by @ZBrownCEO, this was the prize for his first podium in papaya colors! 🧡#USGP 🇺🇸
