Meanwhile, one of the users named @Haaalo14 even mocked Ferrari for their recent strategic blunders that have left Charles Leclerc way behind for this year’s F1 title. “You would think they would go for hard tires (because longer stint)…..but Ferrari strategy always amazes me,” @Haaalo14 said.
Moreover, the other user named @Street1Racing added, “Guys out here living his best life.” Furthermore, some users were in awe of what they had seen and even expressed their envy with @FrenkHU adding, “Ahww that sound, very rich people play big like this.”
Last week, various recordings were posted on social media of the vehicle speeding down the D4 motorway which runs out of Prague in the Czech Republic to the border with Germany. The vehicle gave off an impression of being a GP2 vehicle, mixing in among other regular vehicles.
Meanwhile, it is against the law to drive vehicles of that kind on the motorway in a focal European country. What’s more, in one more turn to the adventure, police examined a comparative occurrence that happened in a similar region three years ago.
In 2019, a similar vehicle was spotted driving down a similar section of motorway, which prompted an inquiry. Officials figured out how to find the proprietor of the Ferrari, yet the suspect denied he was in the driver’s seat at that point.
In this manner, police couldn’t demonstrate their case as the driver was wearing a racing helmet that disguised their personality, so no charges were brought against the suspect. Furthermore, luckily so for whoever was in the driver’s seat, they kept away from a £347 fine and a one-year restriction from driving.
Back in F1, the Scuderia will expect to get their season back on track when the ongoing break in the campaign finishes. Drivers and groups will get back to activity in Belgium in a few days’ time with the fourteenth round of the F1 2022 season taking place in the form of Belgian GP from August 26-28.
