Josh Allen and Daniel Ricciardo remain the best friends anyone could have.
We’ve covered this friendship over the years, from Ricciardo finally getting the chance to see Allen play in person, to Allen surprising Ricciardo during a live F1 race last year, to the two reuniting in Las Vegas this winter. Where’s the next stop on this friendship journey?
Apparently it has something to do with horses?
An upcoming Beats by Dre campaign called “The Legend of Rickalen” brings together the friends for a short film starring the two athletes. The trailer for the short dropped on Monday, and you can see how awesome it is here.
The relationship between athletes and Beats by Dre makes perfect sense, especially when it comes to Ricciardo. The F1 driver is often seen wearing his custom Beats on the track, as evidenced by this photo I took just before the start of the Miami Grand Prix in May.
According to a press release for “The Legend of Recall,” “A fateful FaceTime call between Josh and Danielle sparks a friendship unlike any other celebrity BFF. The story takes them on a completely unrealistic shopping spree and before they know it, they’re embarking on the adventure of a lifetime.”
As well as the release of the short film, there will also be a tie-up with this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix and the sale of “Legend of Rykaren” merchandise.
Let’s go.
update: The full short film was released on Wednesday and can be viewed here .
