Fans were delighted to witness a unique meeting before the Hungarian Grand Prix. Leo, Charles Leclerc’s dog, met Roscoe, Lewis Hamilton’s faithful companion. Because if the two drivers will have to work in harmony within the same team next year, their two dogs will also have to coexist and share the Ferrari motorhome.
Leo and Roscoe finally met! 😍🐶

Max Verstappen has appeared to be in trouble… and annoyed on the radio towards his team and engineer Gianpiero Lambiase. Enough to inspire the authors of the famous “Mad Max” saga for a sixth installment? In any case, the pun is validated.

To continue on the cinematic front, the repeated team orders and the tension in the McLaren garage, with Lando Norris initially refusing to obey during the Grand Prix, must have surely delighted the creators of the series “Drive to Survive” on Netflix.

Speaking of a double… the latest one from McLaren dates back to Monza in 2021. It was an Australian who won, Pierre Gasly had to retire… and Max Verstappen climbed on Lewis Hamilton: just like this year in Hungary! Simple coincidence, or a trip back in time?
