Daniel Ricciardo is back at the Formula 1 paddock after a long-term hand injury. During the Grand Prix weekend in Zandvoort, the AlphaTauri driver broke his metacarpal bone, forcing him to watch Liam Lawson temporarily take over his steering wheel for five races.
At COTA, Ricciardo is back and how he feels about it is evident from the first images AlphaTauri has shared of the smiling Australian. This shows him walking across the F1 paddock with his characteristic grin and taking a seat in his AlphaTauri car.
