Why Daniel Ricciardo ranks #64 in Formula 1

Daniel Ricciardo ranks 64th among Formula 1 athletes on GOAT Rank and 1023rd of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 69.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 64, Peak 78, Longevity 76, Honours 58, Statistics 74. Those categories are normalised against the full Formula 1 reference universe of 146 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2011–2024 with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2016, which sets the Peak component at 78. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 78 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes grand prix wins 8, podiums 32, pole positions 3, race starts 257.

Immediately ahead sits Lando Norris on 72.0, a gap of 2.5 points. Directly behind is Keke Rosberg on 71.1. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
