Formula 1 racer Daniel Ricciardo was Series 22's third celebrity to helm the reasonably priced car, in this instance the show's trusty old Suzuki Liana, clocking a 1:42.2 on the F1 leaderboard making him the fastest F1 time ever set. He was the show's 11th and final Formula 1 driver (including former Stigs Perry McCarthy and Ben Collins, despite the latter never having sat in an F1 car) to take the old Liana around for a lap, and was the 13th and final time a Formula 1 driver took the car round, with Lewis Hamilton and fellow Australian Mark Webber having made double appearances in past episodes.
