Daniel Ricciardo fans gleeful after Max Verstappen announcement
Max Verstappen’s change in F1 driver number is exciting news for certain fans of the sport. The idea of him being a modern-day Robin Hood, fighting against high prices and benefiting fans, is intriguing. He could have chosen a unique number after Lando Norris claimed the number 1 spot, perhaps ’69,’ but humorously abandoned the idea due to his partner’s opinion. Instead, he settled on the familiar number 3, previously held by Daniel Ricciardo, bringing joy to fans of both drivers. By selecting this number, he allows fans with Ricciardo merchandise to continue celebrating their favorite driver’s victories without needing to buy new items. This decision showcases Verstappen’s consideration for a specific group of fans within the sport.
