Daniel Ricciardo is known for his rapid quips and funny statements but the Australian exceeded himself with an (unintentional) comedy performnace during🎃 the British Grand Prix pre-event press conference.

It at leastꩵ provided some light relief from th⛎e awkwardness of Lewis Hamilton's grilling over his London Live no show.

Here are the highlights from the venerable♛ Honey B♈adger...

Daniel Ricciardo goads the Metropolitan Police...

Q:
If they organised an event such as last night's again in London, would you all go?Daniel Ricciardo:
Yeah.Pascal Wehrlein
Yeah I would and I would do more donuts, as Daniel did.DR:
That was controlled sliding.

Q: Is that what you told the council?DR: It's alright... arrest me.

Rivals breathe a sigh of relief as the Shoey is retired...

DR:
Most of the last ones have actually come from the others wanting - not the drivers - but the interviewees if you call them (he means interviewers) - they've been wanting to do it. I honestly didn't plan on doing it in even Baku - I was 'ah, I won't do it.' But DC took my shoes off and then Austria, Martin was like frothing for it. So I feel that there are some really sick bastards around here. I never thought it would continue like this. Even yesterday, people were shouting it. I'm just walking along, minding my business and they're like shouting 'do a shoey.' I don't actually just take my shoe off while I'm walking in the street and drink out of it. I feel like I've dug a hole for myself with this one. On that note, I feel like it's been fun. I want to say it's run♐ its course. We'll see what happens but I heard that the Finns drink, I really heard that. But Valtteri did not carry his flag well last Sunday. I mean shame on him! He needed vodka in it, so Valtteri Bottas - disappointed. And that's it. No more shoeys.

Q:
Lewis, you've avoided it so far...

Lewis Hamiltojn:
Absolutely. I still stand firm on... I told you... the juice from the foot is not something ꧑that I wish to drink, especially someone else's!

DR:
It's risky with bღack-to-backs. It is! We put - all the podium guys could end up in hospital for a week. Yeah.

Offer free booze and Daniel Ricciardo will turn up to your party...
Q:
The day before the hearing, the FIA hearing into Sebastian Vettel and his accident with Lewis, the boss of Mercedes,🅠 Toto Wolff, went to a birthday party to celebrate the thirtieth of Sebastian Vettel. I was wondering, from all dri🎐vers, would you be surprised most relevantly for Lewis, but would you be surprised and see it as maybe an act of loyalty or otherwise for your boss to go to a birthday of a rival with whom you've just had an accident before the hearing?

DR:
Free alcohol. ♚Doesn't matter how much money you make, you don't turn that down.

Q:
Unless it's out of your shoe.

DR:
Yeah, actually, good point.

LH:
All I can do is laugh at t𒈔h🉐at one. I don't really have an answer for that one to be honest. That's the dumbest question I've had so far.

PW:
I think Seb is a really nice guy so I would also go 🌃to his birthday.

DR:
Why weren't you invited?

PW:
I don't know! Maybe he doesn't think that I🐷🌱'm nice.

Q:
Daniil, were you was💦hing your hair that evening or did you go as well?

DK:
I was hoping you'd forgotten about me already. I don't have an answer for you. I 🎃cannot even imagine.

DR:
There was an invite for the torpedo. I saw it. Not so 🙈cool.

Who wants to see the Daniel Ricciardo st꧙and up ro♐utine?
