Daniel Ricciardo left Red Bull Racing for Renault at the end of 2018, but is missing an important point from Red Bull. The energy drinks company has links with extreme sports, which Ricciardo is now looking for himself.

It is clear that Daniel Ricciardo is not an everyday Formula 1 driver. Where most drivers might hang on the fitness machines to get fit for a Grand Prix, the Australian throws tyres and throws a hammer. He likes to go out into nature and is doing it again now.

Ricciardo has the greatest fun in the forest

In the third episode of 'No Brakes', you follow Ricciardo during his visit to a stunt park in the woods. Together with Red Bull's mountain biker Matt Jones, Ricciardo takes to the hillside by bike and motorbike. However, this does not always go as planned.

During his first jump on the bike, Ricciardo lets go of his bike and falls on the air cushion himself. Everything is of course well secured, but you wonder how happy Renault will be with the driver's actions. However, Ricciardo enjoys it to the fullest and is very happy with the adventure in the forest afterwards.
