Any potent﷽ial awkwardness behinওd the trio from Down Under has seemingly been ended by the hilarious picture of Ricciardo and Piastri driving a McLaren together.
Piastri had previously reveale💖d that Ricciardo reached out to insist there were no hard feelings: "Him getting in touch like that, that was great for me personally, knowing that there were no hard feelings. That really helps me quite a lot, and it was good to get in touch.
“It was a nice moment. If I can get close to emulating the success he's had on track and th༺e charact💜er he is off the track, I think I'll be doing a reasonable job.”
