RICCIARDO's Greatest F1 Victory? | 2018 MONACO GRAND PRIX

Welcome to episode 25 of the Box Box Banter Podcast. Still in the depths of the 2025 mid-season break, the fellas are thirsting for Formula 1 content, and the only thing that will quench that thirst is the sweet taste of Daniel Ricciardo glory. Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! Ki, Ki, Ki!

After suffering a heartbreaking loss at Monaco in 2016, the honey badger got the last laugh in 2018 by earning his redemption in the streets of Monte Carlo. The victory did not come easily, though. With the silver arrows (Mercedes) continued dominance, Daniel was able to snag a cheeky pole position on Saturday to line up a win on Sunday. However, midway through the Grand Prix, Ricciardo radioed in that he was losing power. His Red Bull was again letting him down, as his car lost 25% of its power, making him much slower than the man chasing him in second place, ex-teammate Sebastien Vettel in the Ferrari.

Daniel, determined as ever, nutted up big time and kept the German behind him as he masterfully navigated the tight streets to take his 2nd and final victory in his Red Bull machine.

The fellas had a lot of fun reliving this one and even splashed out some hard-earned cash for the DR3 x St Hugo wine to celebrate the smiling assassin. We taste test the secret sauce and test each other's Danny Ric knowledge while getting Loosey Goosey. Join us as we go back in time with this retro round and raise a shoey to an Aussie motorsports legend. Cheers Danny!
