If you’ve been keeping even half an eye on this year’s Formula 1 season, you’ll know that ‘exciting’ is an understatement. Round 17 of this rollercoaster season is fast approaching, as F1 races to the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, all ready for this weekend’s American Grand Prix.

Big Personality Meets Big Track

To celebrate, we rejoin McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo for part two of our ‘After The Apex’ series, which combines live footage and animation, to talk about his love for the US of A and why Circuit of The Americas is one of his favourite tracks on the calendar.
