Stunning in an all-black ensemble, Twitter was soon flooded with applause over the Red Bull driver’s look. He even shared a viral moment on the stairs, while photo-bombing Hollywood sweetheart Anne Hathaway.

The two even shared a conversation, with Hathaway admitting her love for the sport. “Wow, I’m a huge fan of F1!”

On Instagram, Ricciardo’s post from the Met Gala has already garnered over 670,000 likes and counting, signaling just how much his fans appreciate his presence on the prestigious event’s red carpet.

Representing the F1 community, Ricciardo had some big shoes to fill after Lewis Hamilton had left a mark on the event.
