for a while if the right opportunities do not emerge for him following his break-up with McLaren.
Back on duty for his British team before the Belgian Grand Prix on Thursday, less than 24 hours after it was announced they will split at the end of this season, Ricciardo revealed the possibility of taking a sabbatical.
Ricciardo was asked during a challenging press conference at Spa if he might consider a spell away from F1 if he did not get the right offers to continue.“It’s the only racing I’m interested in. At this stage of my career, F1 is what I love and it’s where I see myself if I’m doing any racing. “But let’s say the stars don’t align and it doesn’t make perfect sense next year - if it means taking that time off to reset and re-evaluate, then if that’s the right thing to do, I’m willing to.”
Ricciardo, who is ending his contract with McLaren at the end of the season a year early after a series of disappointing results, reiterated that he had been “proud” of his efforts over two seasons at McLaren.In the video below: The race for Giants midfielder Tim TarantoIf you’d like to view this content, please adjust your
