‘It’ll blow your mind’: Ricciardo meets Hollywood star John Cena

Daniel Ricciardo and Hollywood star John Cena have shared a few awkward moments as they chatted away at the Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix.

The Aussie dished out some driving advice to the former WWE star and got a few pointers back on any future Hollywood aspirations during a promotional interview.

The Aussie says in the interview he hopes for a cameo in one of the future Fast and Furious franchise movies, but seemed more interested in getting the actor to attend the Austin Grand Prix in Texas later this year.

“Knowing you’re a car guy, we’ll have to get you out to an F1 race at some point,” he said.

“I think it’ll definitely blow your mind. I’m assuming you’ve never been, right?”

Cena, 44, said he really hoped to make the race, having earlier told Ricciardo his own driving advice on how to entertain crowds.

When asked to give Ricciardo pointers on a future acting career, Cena said: “My advice is just please don’t put me out of a job.

“He knows that smoothness is fast, but he knows that smoothness isn’t very theatrical so please when you decide to make the transition just leave some work for the lowly people on the totem pole.

Ricciardo said he is happy with a minor role, admitting he is a long-time fan of the Fast and Furious movie series.

“I don’t want to steal all your thunder John. So a little cameo role, my five seconds of fame.”

Ricciardo has more serious things to focus about this weekend at the Red Bull Ring in Australia as he continues to build on his form with his new McLaren car.

Last weekend’s French Grand Prix was his equal-best result of the year — and has been suggested to have been the best sign yet that he is back to his best.
