Daniel Ricciardo has extended his sponsorship agreement with Singtel Optus, despite having a difficult year on the racetrack in 2022.
Even if the Australian driver appears to be losing his position at McLaren for 2023, Daniel Ricciardo has prolonged a personal sponsorship agreement with Singtel Optus for 2 more years.
In 2020, Ricciardo signed his first contract with Australian telecoms giant Optus, which at the time saw Ricciardo as the ideal brand ambassador because “he emits happiness and optimism.”
In contrast to his problems in the driver’s seat in 2022, Ricciardo’s achievement in landing a new sponsorship agreement stands out.
Despite being under contract with McLaren through 2023, the Australian driver has just 19 points this season compared to 76 for squad member Lando Norris. RacingNews365.com has got to know that McLaren anticipates releasing Ricciardo from his contract in order to replace him with highly esteemed rookie Oscar Piastri.
Although RacingNews365.com believes that Ricciardo’s camp is requesting a monetary settlement in the neighbourhood of $21 million, talks on the terms of the split are still in progress.
Ricciardo remains a popular driver
