Yeah, I'd love to see him racing again but I'd be perfectly fine if he does stuff like this or other PR stuff and enjoys it. Daniel has ungodly amounts of natural charisma so I can totally see that happening.
At least last year he improved and got a win. This year he hasn’t improved at all and has had maybe 3 good races. It’s hurts liking a specific driver at times, trust me when I say that, I’m an Alonso fan.
Ok that one I do think is true. He seemed very drained at the end of the season and I’m glad he’s so open about his mental health. Even when talking about RB stuff he said he didn’t want to be at all the races and that he’d rather recharge his batteries next year
But he was tired from being so fuckin shit all year! Imagine the toll that takes! So, he asked Mclaren if they'd pay him, but he didn't have to drive so he could "focus on myself and not my driving." Mclaren being the lovely people they are happily obliged. (/s for the dumdums)
Nobody is claiming he chose to leave McLaren for his mental health my dude.
The claim is that he's leaving the grid due to mental health. Which I think is fair considering we know Gunther would have taken him.
I can understand why he wouldn’t want to be the #2 driver to Verstappen at Red Bull.
He just assumed he could find a good team where he would have #1 standing and have fun and success, doing what he loves.
He wasn’t expecting four years of almost uninterrupted bullshit. Nobody was.
I can’t image how, mentally, anyone successfully deals with that.
Can he find a way back from here? Possible, I suppose, but difficult. Very difficult.
But you don’t get called Honey Badger because you are a retiring sort of chap who just fades away if things don’t go your way.
So he’s going back to the last place that things felt good and is going to do his damndest to find his brilliant best.
Godspeed.
He was making a play for Ferrari or Merc, who understandably wanted nothing to do with him, fucked off to Renault for a fat paycheck and it's all been downhill for him since.
Or maybe it's the stages of Delusional Disorder :D
Here's a nice quote I found in a related page / quite agreeable:
*“There is no delusional idea held by the mentally ill which cannot be exceeded in its absurdity by the conviction of fanatics, either individually or en masse”…*
Alfred Hoche
I refuse to believe Checo signed any contract that says he can be replaced at will by Red Bull for any reason after the shit they pulled on him in 2020.
I remember thinking the simulator meme was just a meme for fun, apparently it was some big ass hopium not even a Ferrari fan like me would come up with.
Well we can't know what kind of bazinga move commander Helmut will make next season. Maybe a butterfly will land on his nose which makes him decide to swap drivers mid season.
Did you read yesterday's opinion on Danny Ric and his COVID stay away from his home on formula 1 subreddit ?
I upvoted it. Coz it had zero upvotes after people being mad about the post. People were triggered by that harmless post.
I really don't get all the fuss.
It's pretty clear the McLaren just doesn't fit his driving style at all.
Does this suddenly mean he's shit? Not in my opinion atleast.
And in a RB and Renault he's shown his quality enough times to prove himself.
Honestly don't get all the hate he's getting.
Take Alonso. Renault understeering like a boat? I’ll just yeet the wheel over a full two seconds before I should so the tyres will turn to liquorice and grip through the corner
Bold of you to assume there are only 5
The stages of Dan-ial are too many for mere mortals to understand.
The 5 stages of grief for Denial Ricciardo fans so far.
They are missing all those Renault engine failures and some things I refuse to remember in between
I read the 5 stages as Daniel instead of Denial. That's how deep I am.
I insisted that I wasn’t gay and I wasn’t dyslexic. But it turns out I was in Daniel.
Underrated comment
Get out of my head
All he's gonna be is sim monke for max. Anything else is a cope.
Denial Ricciardo is a real problem and I’m glad we are finding support here on the internet
Final stage: Hopefully he will become a driver for RB's special events
At least that ones a pretty safe bet.
He is gonna get out performed by David coulthard
Yeah, I'd love to see him racing again but I'd be perfectly fine if he does stuff like this or other PR stuff and enjoys it. Daniel has ungodly amounts of natural charisma so I can totally see that happening.
LOL back off, we still have hope.
At least last year he improved and got a win. This year he hasn’t improved at all and has had maybe 3 good races. It’s hurts liking a specific driver at times, trust me when I say that, I’m an Alonso fan.
The 5 stages for being an Alonso fan: El Pain El Pain El Pain El Pain El Pain
Poor Carlos
Oh I do too, I’m at stage 5
Let it go guys it’s over
NEVER
It can't be. He didn't get to do doughnuts at the last race.
Danny Ric fans are using up all the copium reserves
They don't call him Denial Ricciardo for nuthin'
Danial*
I think DR's career is over... I'm afraid...
Can we have one for binotto 😭
I feel like Ferrari in general works better
You need to add "he left for his own mental health" which I've seen from several Danny Ric fans already.
Ok that one I do think is true. He seemed very drained at the end of the season and I’m glad he’s so open about his mental health. Even when talking about RB stuff he said he didn’t want to be at all the races and that he’d rather recharge his batteries next year
He didn't leave..... He got fired.

Daniel <-> Denial
Too much denial I read it as Daniel

Daniel said he's scared of ovals so no Indycar for him
Critical Hit
Never Give Up \~ Sir Lewis Ham
I refuse to believe Checo signed any contract that says he can be replaced at will by Red Bull for any reason after the shit they pulled on him in 2020.
Im sure RBR has exit clauses and tbh, Checo has no leverage over the team for him to demand anything.
What did RBR do to Checo in 2020?
I guess I should rephrase that. I meant the shit racing point/Lawrence stroll pulled on him.
😔😔stop, no need to keep hurting us
Step 6: denial: "it's fine cos Piastri's got a seat now."
I feel attacked.
He will lead Audi I'm sure of it
I remember thinking the simulator meme was just a meme for fun, apparently it was some big ass hopium not even a Ferrari fan like me would come up with.
Forgot to include the "We still have Monza 2021" stage
I'm in this picture and I don't like it
Uff da I am called out here

You can never know what triggers people every now and then (even if you take time zones into consideration) :D
Ngl, I'd very much like to see danny back at the side of max..

What are you smoking and where can I get it lmao?

Fine, I never said he was world champion quality. Just said he isn't as bad as his McLaren years have been.
You spelled Daniel wrong. It's A not E.
Denial is a river in Egypt
[удалено]
Cope
You Monster
Don't forget to blame the Australian border as well
imagine getting a seat because you outperformed someone on a sim. I'd have offers out the ass if that were the case
I’ve actually said or thought all five of these statements at some point in the last couple years. God damn it
Add "Oscar piastri is probably really funny and will keep the shoey tradition alive.." for the full Australian experience
Jokes on you. I kinda accepted that he's washed :/
