Formula 1 star Daniel Ricciardo will make his Race Of Champions debut in London on November 20-21, partnering motorbike legend Mick Doohan for Team Australia at the Stadium at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park – the iconic home of the 2012 London Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Ricciardo said: "It's an honour to be invited to the Race Of Champions and I'm really looking forward to racing inside the tight confines of London's former Olympic Stadium. It will be very different to what I'm used to in Formula 1 but I can't wait to try out ROC’s wide range of cars in quick succession. It looks like a serious challenge but I’m ready for anything."
"It's also very special to be able to represent my country, especially as team-mate to someone like Mick Doohan. The word 'legend' is overused in sport but Mick is one of the few who genuinely deserve it. What he's achieved is incredible and I've seen he's a mean competitor on four wheels too. Now we need as many Europe-based Aussies as possible to come to London to cheer us on, then let's see what we can do."
