Today at 11:53 AM
Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton are not teammates yet, but they already share remarkably similar experiences, including flying in a training jet. Following the Monegasque driver, the seven-time world champion decided to take on an unforgettable high-altitude adventure.
Lewis Hamilton undertook a flight training program primarily used by astronauts. According to his account, it was a childhood dream of his, which he was finally able to fulfill through a collaboration with IWC, the renowned watch brand he has long endorsed.
Lewis Hamilton's experience has reminded many of Charles Leclerc's recent flight on a fighter jet, which took place less than a month ago. While the type of aircraft differed significantly for the two drivers, the high-altitude experience and the awe they displayed were strikingly similar.
Charles Leclerc piloted a fighter jet as part of a project with Canal Plus, a network known for such programs. For Charles Leclerc, it was his first time participating in such an experience. Following in the footsteps of his future teammate, Hamilton decided to try something very similar.
The two drivers seem to be increasingly in sync and are often spotted laughing and joking together in the paddock. After the recent Las Vegas Grand Prix, where Charles Leclerc unleashed a furious team radio message directed at his current teammate Carlos Sainz, the Monegasque shared a photo on social media featuring himself with Hamilton.
Starting next year, Ferrari will have a new driver pairing that doesn't limit itself to racing the fastest cars in the world. Who knows, perhaps their shared passion for aviation will become another point of connection for these future teammates.
