ROUND #10, RUSSIA: “VODKA AND BAD LUCK, PLEASE!”

Привет! Welcome to Russia, the land of vodka, Tolstoj and Dostoevskij!

Louis had quite an unlucky weekend, as he qualified 13th and ended the Feature Race, won by the Young Kaiser, in 18th position, and he was penalized. even though he scored the fastest lap. But I’m very happy about the Little Samurai Yuki Tsunoda, which started from Pole Position! #NipponPower Last year I met Yuki-kun in Monza, do you remember?

In the Sprint Race Lou ended 15th. What can I say? He’s been unlucky, but I’m sure that in two months in Sakhir he will have a better time!

24 HOURS OF PASSION

Madames et monsieurs, bienvenue au Mans pour la competition la plus belle et important du monde!

It was supposed to be held in June, but due to the infamous CoVid-19 pandemy it was postponed to September. Here we have Lou, who previously won the virtual one, driving a Rebellion LMP1 prototype along with Nathanaël Berthon (his surname recalls me about Tarcisio Bertone!) and Romain Dumas, whose surname recalls me of the famous French writer Alexandre Dumas (I am and always will be a literature geek). There also are many former F1 stars, such as my childhood hero Juancho and my fellow Italian Fisico! And obviously I support Kamui and Kazuki, the samurais of Toyota!

And Kazuki finally won the race, his 3rd 24h of Le Mans in a row! Lou and his coequipiers ended 4th: good job, guys!

See you in a week for the Russian F2 round!

ROUND #9: TUSCANY: BAD QUALIFY? TWO PODIUMS!

Bentornati in Italia! Welcome to Tuscany, the region of Dante Alighieri, the father of Italian language! This is the first time that F1 and feeder series visit Mugello, in the past years only Formula One sometimes tested here.

Drivers need to be sober before the races, so surely they didn’t drink the famous Chianti wine, but some of them surely ate the famous Fiorentina steak.

And now let’s switch to our Lou! His qualification session was very unlucky, but in the Feature Race on Saturday afternoon he had the chance to climb the 3rd step of the podium.

On Sunday morning he had to fight against a Russian Cossack and a Great Dane and finally ended 2nd.

See you in Sochi in 2 weeks! Arrivederci!

ROUND #8: ITALY: MICK, 20 YEARS AFTER

 Buongiorno a tutti e benvenuti in Italia! 

As you know, we’ll have three Italian appointments this year, this one in Monza, the next one in Mugello (Tuscan Grand Prix) and another one in Imola (Grand Prix of Emilia-Romagna) 

For health and safety reasons the “Tifosi” are not here, but Italian heat is so strong that can be felt ever if we are distant! But yesterday there was a German to give us a big emotion: Mick Schumacher won on the same track where his father won several times! It was an huge joy for everybody. And Luca the Italian Goodfella ended 2nd! Lou ended 8th, and this made him start the Sprint Race on pole position.

He had a good start, but had to surrender to Dan Ticktum and after a breathtaking battle against Call(um) Me Maybe Ilott and Christian Lundgaard (Marta García’s ex) he ended 5th.

Arrivederci! See you in Tuscany in a week!
