Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen have clearly not lost the chemistry they once had, despite no longer being team-mates.
In a recent video released by Red Bull in collaboration with Ford, the four-time world champion and new Racing Bulls driver Arvid Lindblad went head-to-head, taking turns at the wheel of a range of Ford cars spanning from classic models to the latest machinery.
Overseeing the action was Daniel Ricciardo, who has been serving as an ambassador for the Detroit-based manufacturer since last year.
In a behind-the-scenes clip shared on social media, the Australian invited Verstappen back to his hotel room to watch a movie, prompting the Dutchman to jokingly suggest they should “create The Hangover 4,” the hit American comedy about a group of friends whose Las Vegas bachelor party spirals completely out of control, spawning two equally successful sequels.

Verstappen reveals how he got Daniel Ricciardo’s iconic number 3

The Dutchman, having lost the title this year to Lando Norris — and with it the chance to run the number 1 on his car — has opted for number 3 for the upcoming season, long regarded as his favourite number.
That same number was famously worn by Ricciardo throughout his Red Bull stint from 2014 to 2018 and across the rest of his career, becoming one of the most iconic numbers in Formula 1.
