Salary:
17 million USD
Ricciardo will earn an annual salary of $15 million at McLaren, the joint-fourth highest paid driver on the grid. This figure excludes driver performance bonuses and personal sponsors.
In 2020, Ricciardo was 48th on the list of highest paid athletes in the world by Forbes. He earned approximately $27m from his salary at Renault with $2m through endorsement.
Net Worth 2022:
Those dramatic victories with Red Bull are the highlights of his career that has seen him gain a net worth of $50m in 2022.
In 2021, Ricciardo introduced his own wine range called the DR3, partnering iconic wine brand St Hugo. He has been sponsored by Go Pro, Blue Coast and Puma for the majority of his F1 career.
The 2014 season saw Ricciardo’s stock rise substantially when he became the only non-Mercedes driver to win a race that year in his Red Bull. The Australian took three victories in 2014, including his maiden win in a dramatic Canadian Grand Prix.
He capitalised on problems for Mercedes drivers Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg to overtake the latter with just three laps to go in dramatic circumstances. From that day in Montreal, everyone knew about the smiling Aussie driver.
How much does weight:
64 kg
Still, the added weight means teams need to look to the driver for an edge, so they are figuratively knocking that knife and fork out of their hands.
We aren’t exactly talking about a massive man needing to shed holiday pounds, a plight most of us can already relate to.
This is a svelte driver who is finding that every fork full of goodness and each spoon of delight docks him vital seconds on the course.
