Ricciardo confirmed his relationship with Heidi Berger in September 2022, a year after they were first spotted together, per Crash.net. "I'm in love, I got a good thing going, so yeah. I've got a good balance in life right now. I think love eliminates stress, yeah absolutely," he said during an interview on the "Fitzy and Wippa" podcast.
Berger is no stranger to the racing world, either. She is the daughter of 10-time Grand Prix winner Gerhard Berger, who has given Ricciardo some career advice amid his relationship with Heidi. "When I was young, I mean I've followed F1 since I was a kid and I had a Berger hat," Ricciardo said in the podcast interview. "It's funny, I talk about it with him. He still goes to quite a few races he still has an interest in the sport and he still does some business with it. Any ex-sportsman, anyone who's been through it — I just love speaking to them and gaining knowledge and insight through their experience there's so much wisdom."
