Leaked footage: Daniel Ricciardo's hint about F1 sabbatical?

Ricciardo is without a drive for next season after McLaren decided to end his contract prematurely in order to sign Alpine junior Oscar Piastri.
This leaves Ricciardo’s options limited with Alpine, Haas or William꧑s hi🅠s only realistic options.
Alpine are expected to sign Pierre Gasly, while it’s unlikely Ricciardo will want ꦿto drop down to either to a team competing at 🍌the back of the grid.

Ricciardo struggles again at Zandvoort
Ricciardo’s disappointing season continued at the Dutch GP, finishing a lowly 17th 🍨afte🐟r being knocked out in Q1.
In stark co🐼ntrast to high-flying McLaren teammate La🦄ndo Norris, who qualified and finished inside the top eight.

Reflecting on the weekend, he said: “I feel like there’s been a lot of bad ones, so if I say it’s the worst — I didn’t think it could get worse. It’s weird as well because I think back to FP1 and I remember the first few laps of the s💃ession to me was like, all right, that’s p1. I was like, all right.
“Even if not everyone’s set a tim♑e, I thought it was trending to be a much better weekend. That’s where it’s a weird one. I know qualifying got away from us through the last corner, but it felt like we were looking like a muc🅘h better car or in a better place at the first practice session.
“So yeah. Tough 🥂to say, but certainly not a good weekend.”
