Daniel Ricciardo Confirms Return At United States Grand Prix

Daniel Ricciardo will return to the F1 grid in his AlphaTauri at the 2023 United States Grand Prix as the driver confirmed himself.

The Honey Badger crashed during the Free Practice ahead of the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix, suffering a broken metacarpal as a result, and having to undergo a surgery that forced him out of action for over a month.

But ahead of the 2023 United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas, as reported by The Athletic, Ricciardo should return to his seat and complete his first race since the 2023 Belgian Grand Prix, in which he finished 16th.

During the Australian's absence, Liam Lawson showed great promise, and in the months of Sergio Perez's struggles, Ricciardo was even rumoured to replace him at Red Bull Racing, with the New Zealander driver, who replaced him, getting a permanent seat at AlphaTauri.
