You're not interested enough in social media to follow several hundred drivers and teams, but you don't like to miss any of the little stories that animate MotoGP and the other categories? This daily column is made for you, early in the morning, to start the day well while waiting for more substantial articles. Today, discover the challenge of Fabio Quartararo with Formula 1 drivers.
During the Formula 1 Barcelona Grand Prix, Fabio Quartararo was spotted in the paddock on Friday, visiting numerous drivers. The MotoGP star from Nice took on a unique challenge alongside Formula 1 drivers: a ball control test inspired by football. A popular sport among Formula 1 drivers, they are often seen with a ball in the paddock before races.
The objective was simple: each participant had to catch a thrown ball and perform perfect control. The exercise, far from the challenges of the track, allowed the drivers' agility to be measured in a completely different context. For Quartararo, the exercise was much easier than for his Formula 1 colleagues. The Yamaha driver, in fact, demonstrated a certain ease in performing the exercise, before showing off his footballing talents by starting to juggle.
