Daniel Ricciardo's 'f*** em all' message as F1 star told 'nice guys don't get anywhere'

Daniel Ricciardo wrote an x-rated message on his helmet for the Monaco Grand Prix as a motivational tactic, the Formula 1 star has revealed.

While the Aussie failed to make much of an impression in the race, some eagle-eyed fans spotted some handwriting on his helmet. A camera showing Ricciardo in the cockpit of his McLaren revealed that the letters "FEA" had been daubed onto the back of his head protector.

While those letters themselves are not explicit, it turned out that it was an initialism for a phrase which most certainly was. Users on social media speculated that the letters were short for "f**k 'em all" – a hypothesis which appears to have been confirmed by the racer himself.
