Anele Mdoda is still in the United States of America with her son Alakhe. Alakhe met the Italian-Australian Formula 1 driver Daniel Ricciardo, and they had an interesting conversation. Firstly Trevor Noah, who is very close friends with Anele, introduced the mom and son to the racer. When Formula 1 saw the video, they posted it on their official Instagram page. What a highlight, what a moment!
What did Alakhe say to Ricciardo?
Alakhe spoke about a 2016 formula one race with Ricciardo. Initially, the driver was a bit confused, but then he remembered. In 2016 the race car driver would’ve won, but he had a mishap in Monaco, and he lost. Alakhe vividly remembered everything that happened, and the driver was so impressed. When the driver asked Alakhe how old he was in that year, Alakhe told him he was only a year old.
Trevor later explained the little boy is a huge sports fanatic. He also explained how he watches episodes of sporting events repeatedly. Ricciardo was chuffed and very impressed.
