During the first practice session for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Formula 1 fans witnessed a heartwarming moment as Charles Leclerc and his younger brother, Arthur, drove side-by-side in matching Ferraris at the Yas Marina Circuit. This unique display of brotherly camaraderie marked the first time in F1 history that siblings were teammates in an official session as part of a championship race weekend.
Arthur Leclerc, a 24-year-old driver who previously competed in Formula 2, had the opportunity to drive Carlos Sainz Jr.'s Ferrari due to a rule requiring teams to provide practice time to younger and less experienced drivers. The Leclerc brothers' shared passion for racing was evident as they exchanged waves during their slowdown lap, with Arthur expressing his excitement over the radio.
