Daniel Ricciardo and Will Arnett to host alternate F1 telecasts on ESPN

Daniel Ricciardo and Will Arnett will host an alternate telecast on ESPN2 during next weekend's Canadian Grand Prix.

The debut episode of The Grandstand with Daniel Ricciardo and Will Arnett will air on June 18 on ESPN2 in the U.S., while regular race coverage of the Canadian Grand Prix will be broadcast on ABC.

Two further editions of the telecast will run at the U.S. Grand Prix on October 22 and the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix on November 18.

The telecasts will be produced in collaboration with Peyton Manning's Omaha Productions, whose critically-acclaimed 'ManningCasts' have proved popular on Monday Night Football.

Ricciardo, an eight-time race winner who is currently Red Bull Racing's third driver, and Arnett, a recent fan of F1 who starred in hit TV series Arrested Development and 30 Rock, will be joined by guests during the race.

For the upcoming episode over the Canadian Grand Prix weekend, Ricciardo will be on location at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal while Arnett will join from a remote location.

"This is going to be a hoot!" Ricciardo said. "As you'd expect Will and I are going to have some fun with the show, but we're hoping it just feels like you're watching F1 with your mates.

"We will have some amazing guests, plenty of laughs and with some luck, bring fans another step closer to the sport I love so much. Buckle up America!"

Arnett added: "The more I learn about Formula One, the more I'm intrigued by it. The opportunity to work with Mika [Hakkinen, two-time F1 champion] on my podcast was fantastic, and I'm really looking forward to doing this show with Daniel. We're going to have fun, and so will the viewers."

Yesss, both checo and max have complimented Daniel’s sim work. This article is interesting bc a RB chief goes in a little more detail about how Daniel was used for sim work: “Daniel's wise enough to be able to go, ‘OK I know what Max will need I know what Checo will need.’”

wait that's actually fascinating that he describes daniel as "somewhere in the middle" between the types of setups max would want and the types of setups checo would want?? i wonder if it's a true middle or if he leans a bit more one way or the other?? also do they use certain setups based on what he likes when he's driving in the sim it or is that comment based on what he historically liked when he was with the team previously?? god so many questions absolutely zero answers to be found

corporate wants you to find the difference (x)

idk who at red bull to contact about this but instead of driving the rb8, daniel really should be driving either the rb9 (the car he drove during the young drivers test day in 2013) or the rb10 (the first car he drove for rbr) for the narrative

Being a Daniel fan is so weird in 2023. Last year we got a steady stream of content but it was like 90% miserable. This year we either get nothing for weeks at a time or an overwhelming amount of insane content all at once.

oh my god i KNOW??? i think i prefer it this way, but god are the highs high and the lows low. and we're what, like 2 months into the season? we still have so much of the season left and when it just keeps getting more and more insane as time passes....mom pick me up i'm scared 😭
