Daniel Ricciardo Surges to $194 Million Fortune, Outshining F1 Rival Oscar Piastri in Wealth Rankings

Daniel Ricciardo Races Ahead in Wealth: $194 Million Fortune Places Him Among Australia’s Elite Under 40!

In a stunning revelation, former Formula 1 superstar Daniel Ricciardo has landed a prestigious spot on Australia’s elite young rich list, proving that his financial prowess outshines even his fellow racing compatriots. Despite stepping away from the high-octane world of F1 last year, Ricciardo emerges as a financial titan, surpassing the rising star Oscar Piastri, who is still in pursuit of his inaugural F1 championship.

According to the latest figures released by The Australian Financial Review, Ricciardo, at 36 years old, boasts an impressive net worth of $194 million, securing the 35th position in the esteemed 2025 rankings. In contrast, Piastri, the young McLaren driver and newcomer to the rich list, stands at 56th with a substantial $122 million to his name. While both racers are not in the top 10, their fortunes are remarkable, showcasing the lucrative nature of their careers in motorsport.

This year’s rich list welcomed an influx of wealth, with 22 new faces contributing an astounding $4 billion to the collective net worth of Australia’s wealthiest under 40. The competition among the elite is fierce, but Ricciardo’s financial clout keeps him firmly in the lead over Piastri.

At the pinnacle of the 2025 rich list, Canva co-founders Melanie Perkins and Cliff Obrecht reign supreme with a staggering estimated worth of $18.5 billion. This power couple leaves second-place Ed Craven, co-founder of the online gaming platform Stake.com, far behind with his $4.6 billion fortune. Rounding out the top three are Robbie and James Ferguson, whose blockchain enterprise Immutable has propelled them to a combined wealth of $1.7 billion.

Notably, Ricciardo has outperformed Hollywood’s own Margot Robbie, who, despite her Oscar-nominated stature, ranks as the top entertainer at 36th with a fortune of $193 million. In the realm of sports, NBA star Ben Simmons has claimed the title of Australia’s richest young athlete, sitting comfortably at 20th with a jaw-dropping worth of $260 million.

To qualify for the Young Rich List in 2025, individuals needed to possess a minimum fortune of $44 million, a significant increase from the $38 million threshold set in 2024. Such stringent criteria highlights the extraordinary financial achievements of these young moguls, and makes Ricciardo’s accomplishment all the more impressive.

As the world of motorsport continues to evolve, one thing is clear: Daniel Ricciardo remains a formidable force, both on and off the track. Will Piastri catch up in terms of wealth? Only time will tell, but for now, Ricciardo holds the crown as Australia’s richest racing icon!
