No-one is safe from the shoey.Daniel Ricciardo promised he would not do the shoey again if he didnt win a race, and he kept that promise after finishing third at the U.S. Grand Prix. The Australian instead turned to Scottish actor Gerard Butler, famous for his role as a Spartan in the film 300, who was doing the podium interviews.After Butler had interviewed Ricciardo, the Australian flashed a trademark grin.?Just quickly, he said. I hear Mr Butler does not drink alcohol, I respect that completely but I believe hes going to drink some Red Bull out of my shoe right now. The race wasnt that exciting but hopefully now.Butler, reluctantly, took Ricciardos sweaty shoe, saying: Listen I love Red Bull, youve got to be kidding me.... I hate you.After chugging the Red Bull in one go, Butler laughed and said: Its actually quite tasty!Butler then theatrically fell to the floor, prompting an excited Ricciardo to say: Medic! Medic!Race winner Hamilton was then up for the final podium question, but he had no interest in talking about the race after what hed just watched.How did that taste? the world champion asked.Butler replied: Well Red Bull is quite a powerful drink... so fortunately it tastes mostly of Red Bull.Ricciardo later revealed he had successfully got Butler to sign the shoe in question.?

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Thomas Davis knows his window to win a Super Bowl is closing fast.That doesnt bother the Panthers 33-year-old All-Pro linebacker as much as the fear of not being able to make good on a promise to team owner Jerry Richardson.At this point, its really not about me anymore, Davis said of winning a Super Bowl. My goal and my whole reasoning for playing as hard as I can right now -- knowing that when you get to 12 years (in the league) time is starting to wind down -- is I want to put a Super Bowl ring on Mr. Richardsons finger.The promise stems from the loyalty Richardson showed Davis after he tore the ACL in his knee for the third time in two years back in 2011.Rather than release Davis, who was due an $8 million option that offseason, Richardson met with the former Georgia Bulldogs All-American in his office and asked him to return -- a seemingly generous gesture considering no NFL player had ever returned from three torn ACLs in the same knee.The Panthers restructured Davis deal and hes been rewarding them ever since.Davis has put together four outstanding seasons, helping the Panthers finish in the top 10 in defense every year. Along with earning his first All-Pro selection last year, hes also been an ambassador for the team, winning the NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year in 2014 and number of other awards for his community service.But his primary goal is to repay Richardson with the owners first Super Bowl since bringing the NFL to the Carolinas in 1995.That was the promise I made to him, Davis said, becoming emotional as he spoke. Im trying to stay true to that promise.Thats one of the reasons Davis didnt hesitate to play in the Super Bowl last year after breaking his forearm in the NFC championship game. Davis didnt complain about having 12 screws and a metal plate surgically inserted into his arm just 13 days before the game.Davis not only played in Super Bowl 50 but had five tackles and handed out some vicious hits, although the Panthers lost the game 24-10 to the Denver Broncos.ddddddddddddHe has said the loss has only bolstered his desire to get back.The highly regarded Panthers begin their season Thursday night with a rematch against the Broncos in Denver.Knowing he was that person that believed in me, that said he would give me another shot after everything I went through personally, its definitely something I want to be a part of, Davis said of Richardson.While Davis wants to win a ring for the teams owner -- who declined comment for this story through the teams public relations staff -- the linebackers teammates want to win one for him.Davis is as well respected in the Panthers locker room as any player who has put on the pads in the franchises 22-year history.You look at what Thomas has done for the Carolina Panthers fighting through the knees and with his work in the community, I think getting him a ring would be a final stamp on his resume, linebacker Luke Kuechly said. Hes been All-Pro, been to the Pro Bowl, won Walter Payton Man of the Year and all sorts of awards I cant even name. ... If you look at what the Panthers embody, its Thomas Davis. He fights, he leads and does everything the right way.Then Kuechly smiled and said, I would never say all of this nice stuff in front of him, but hes one of my best buds.Davis feels the same way about Richardson, a former player who brought football to the Carolinas but has never won the games ultimate prize.When you look at Mr. Richardson and what hes been and what hes done for me as a player, I mean, (a Super Bowl ring) is the only thing he doesnt have, Davis said.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Sports Writer Steve Reed on Twitter: http://twitter.com/SteveReedAP ' ' '
