Jim Farley hosts a conversation with Daniel Ricciardo about the triumphs and challenges of Formula One, and how those moments are both powerful and grounding. Ricciardo explains the origins of his signature “shoey,” why he helped to loosen up the historically buttoned-up sport, and how fans turned it into an expectation.
