The renegade pooch seen galloping across the BIC track trying to catch up with racers during Friday night’s F1 free practice is now in the care of the Bahrain Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (BSPCA) waiting to be vaccinated and spayed before she can be adopted by a ‘fur-ever’ family.
The excitable stray, who was nicknamed ‘Spaniel Ricciardo’, made her debut on Renault’s team radio and was clocked reaching a high speed of 10kmph, which ended up ‘paws’ing action on the track for a few minutes .
