Daniel Ricciardo may not be on the grid at Albert Park for the Australian Grand Prix this weekend, but that hasn’t stopped him from driving a Formula 1 car around his home country. The Australian returned to Red Bull as their reserve driver this season after parting ways with McLaren at the end of last year and was back in the cockpit in very unusual conditions. Ricciardo then moves north of the border to Queensland, where he meets off-road racer Toby Price for an obstacle course, as he drives the Red Bull around tractors and harvesters. Nevertheless, while there’s no dust to speak of the sight of Ricciardo tearing around the home of the Bathurst 1000 followed by Van Gisbergen in his Red Bull Ampol Camaro is almost as odd of him driving around the outback.
