Max Verstappen responds to Daniel Ricciardo’s Le Mans dream team call

Max Verstappen playfully suggested that his former teammate Daniel Ricciardo demonstrated intelligence in selecting him for a dream Le Mans team. The Australian had previously discussed the possibility with Verstappen on a recent podcast. Ricciardo mentioned a Le Mans entry as one of his potential next moves. Verstappen proposed Sebastian Vettel as another intriguing choice, suggesting a "nice little Red Bull reunion."

Verstappen acknowledged Ricciardo's interest in endurance racing, stating that a one-off entry would only be worthwhile if they could be competitive. However, he emphasized the importance of proper preparation for a Le Mans attempt. The former teammates raced together at Red Bull from 2016 to 2018.
