Daniel Ricciardo is of interest t🦹o a racing series in his native Australia.

The Supercars Championship - an FIA-g🥀overned touring car series based in Australia and New Zealand - has taken note of Ricciardo’s availabilit💦y.

The Formula 1 veteran’s next step is unclear after he lost his RB race seat wi🥃th immediate ef🌳fect to Liam Lawson.

Ricciardo won’t race again this year, and has no F1 contra෴ct for next season, meaning his career is likely over.

Supercars chief executive Shane Howard hopes the addition of a Perth street circuit in 2026 💯could tempt Ricciardo.

“I think everyone would welcome Daniel with open arms, absolutely,” How♐ard told .

“Would we 🎶like to see Daniel Ricciardo in a Supercar? 100 per centඣ.

“Just imagine if he could be in one of our cars and race in ꦫa new street race in Perth, that would be something special wouldn’t it?

“It would be absolutely massive.

“He is such an incredible dri𝓡ver and suc♚h an incredible personality and people just absolutely love him.

“🌠Imagine him racing at Bathurst, wow. That woul꧒d be very cool indeed.

“A♏t an appropriate time we would reach out to Daniel and hi💧s management.

“Obviously he has got a lot g💝o🔯ing on and we respect that.

“Blake Frie෴nd in his managemeꩵnt team used to work for us.

“At the right time, we woul♍d reach out, but we would certainly like to have him in one of our cars, 100 per cent we would.”

Ricciardo has kept his cards close to his cheဣst regarding his next mov𒅌e.

He has hinted at recent F1 rounds that the 🌃prospect of joining another racing series does not interest him.

But now he is faced without a race seat in F1, and without much prospect 🐭of returning to the grid in 2025, he will be conf𓆉ronted by the decision of whether to look elsewhere.
