Never one to forget his roots and his passion for racing Daniel decided to commission his own kart chassis in 2015 so he could encourage youngsters to take up karting and maybe just maybe follow in his footsteps – so the Ricciardo Kart brand was born!
In 2018 Andy Cox developed a further idea for the Ricciardo Kart brand and with Daniel and his management team presented the Daniel Ricciardo Series.
