Ricciardo to test Earnhardt’s 1984 Chevy at USGP

Daniel Ricciardo will test Dale Earnhardt’s 1984 Wrangler Chevrolet Monte Carlo NASCAR Cup Series car at next weekend’s United States Grand Prix. McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown promised Ricciardo a test in the No. 3 Chevy when he scored his first podium for the team, as Earnhardt was the Australian’s idol growing up. The deal was struck at the start of this season and Ricciardo duly delivered in style in Monza, winning the Italian Grand Prix as McLaren secured a one-two finish. Ricciardo will now get the chance to drive Earnhardt’s car during the USGP weekend at Circuit of The Americas, in front of a sell-out crowd in Austin.
