Once upon a time, Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo were teammates at Red Bull Racing, and also filmed content together for the team. One of those videos was where the two dressed up in holiday costumes and danced together for Christmas.

Eight years ago, Verstappen, dressed as a Christmas elf, and Ricciardo, dressed as Santa Claus, wished Red Bull fans 'Happy Holidays' everywhere in the world. In the video, you can see fake snow tossed, snowballs thrown, and the F1 factory in Milton Keynes decorated for Christmas.
