It is summer break in the Formula 1 world with no action for three weeks straight and Daniel Ricciardo is already out for a holiday.

In a special packaged video by Aston Martin Red Bull Racing, Ricciardo is shown driving his Red Bull car in some of the famous places in the United States of America – including tyre pit stops performed by the team.

The Australian drives on the San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge and charges through the streets of the city to get to the desert roads of Monument Valley, Utah. The road trip came to a close in Las Vegas as he drives through the night-time traffic.

The team is famous for their out of box marketing strategies especially using their F1 cars and this one with Ricciardo ranks among the best they have done in all these years. The video comes as Liberty Media is looking to add another American venue on the calendar.

At the stroke of the summer break, Red Bull sits third in the constructors’ championship with 223 points as Ricciardo is fifth in the drivers’ standings with 118 points ahead of teammate Max Verstappen on 105. The team has six podiums including three wins so far.
