F1 cult hero Daniel Ricciardo will return from injury for this weekend's\u00a0United States GP.<\/p>\n
The 34-year-old has missed the past five races after he broke his left hand in practice for the Dutch GP.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The Australian will be back behind the wheel at Austin, after recently participating in a Red Bull demonstration run in Nashville.<\/p>\n
Ricciardo was handed a second chance by Red Bull's junior team AlphaTauri following his dismissal by McLaren at the end of last season.<\/p>\n
He was only three races into his comeback when he had a crash in Zandvoort.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Liam Lawson, who has been filling in for Ricciardo, will now step aside as the fan favourite returns.<\/p>\n
And his loving supporters are thrilled to see him return to the Circuit of the Americas.<\/p>\n One Ricciardo enthusiast wrote: "Time to show Redbull what he is made off!"<\/p>\n A second said: "I hope he comes out swinging."<\/p>\n A third added: "And hopefully next season he will be in the Red Bull with Max."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS<\/strong><\/p>\n Despite his injury, AlphaTauri announced that they have kept the eight-time GP winner on their team for 2024, alongside Japanese driver Yuki Tsunoda.<\/p>\n And Ricciardo hopes to use that as a springboard for a potential return to the Red Bull seat he vacated five years ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n Sergio Perez is out of contract at the end of next year and the team will consider its options for who may partner Max Verstappen in the long-term.<\/p>\n The US Grand Prix is scheduled to take place on Sunday, as Verstappen has already wrapped up the season with his third successive title.<\/p>\n<\/picture>MAX EARNER <\/span><\/p>\n
