Daniel Ricciardo plans to travel from Ford’s Raptor Rally in Lake Havasu, Arizona, to Austin with country singer Rob Baird. Austin is also the host city for the United States Grand Prix, making a paddock visit a possibility. In his message, Ricciardo described the drive but did not say whether he would attend the race.

In a note to subscribers of his Enchanté brand, the former F1 driver said the pair would take a longer route through desert and backroads, with swimming holes along the way.

Since leaving F1 in 2024, Ricciardo has been a global ambassador for Ford Racing. His role has included representing its Raptor brand and taking part in events with the Ford Raptor T1+.
