Daniel Ricciardo to Toyota?

The reported deal wಞould see Ricciardo race in NASCAR in the United States, and Supercars in Austral🎃ia.

rep🅠ort thaꦰt a former Toyota executive has spilled the beans on the manufacturer’s desire for Ricciardo.

Akio Toyoda, the chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation, allegedly chaired a𝓰 ‘behind closed doors’ meeting to discuss it.

“I’ve been told that Toyoda-san can see his (Ricciardo) value, not just as a driver, but as s🧸omeone who can drag inꩲ the fans in huge numbers because of his natural charisma,” the source was quoted.

Toyota want to make a splash when they enter Australian seri♛es Supercars in 2026, and w♔ith their Toyota Gazoo Racing team in NASCAR.

“He (Toyoda) can’t see any downside with having him as the f🐲ace of Gazoo Racing which really is h♍is pet project," the Toyota source was quoted.

“And, from what has been told to me, it’s almost a blank che🐻que operation to get him to say yes.”

Is Daniel Ricciardo’s F1 career over?

Ricciardo was initially dropped by McLaren at the end of 2022 but made a welcome return for AlphaTauri, the Red Bull si🥂ster team, midway through 2023.

He has impressed ﷽Christian Horner with his lap time wh♎en testing a Red Bull.

Ricciardo made it clear his plan was to return to the main team alongside Max Verstappen but iജt never materialised.

A hand injury, shortly after his comeback, opened the d🉐oor briefly🌠 to Liam Lawson to prove his ability.

Although Ri💫cc𝔍iardo retained his seat at the rebranded RB this year, he struggled all season. He was eventually replaced permanently by Lawson.

Ricciardo won’t drive in F1 𝓀in 2025 and his career in the championship looks to be fi🔯nished.
