Reacting to the video, one fan on Twitter wrote: “The crossover I never thought I would see in my life.”

A second wrote: “First it’s Fernando and Taylor Swift. Now Anne Hathaway and Daniel Ricciardo. F1 is where the action is.”

“Danny Ric, I approve,” declared a third.

A fourth commented: “OH GAWD TWO WORLDS COLLIDING.”

While a fifth added: “MY QUEEN AND KING .”

The 33-year-old is awaiting his return to F1 after being unceremonially axed by McLaren last season.
