F1: Franco Colapinto, Lewis Hamilton and the least thought flight
The English took the Argentine on his private plane from Barcelona to England and the Alpine pilot told how the trip was.
Like any community of these times, among F1 pilots there is a WhatsApp group, how could it be otherwise. After the weekend of the GP of Spain, in Barcelona, Lewis Hamilton took his phone and sent a message: “Does anyone travel to London?” Silenzio Stampa. No one responded. After a while, Franco Colapinto replied: “I go for Easyjeat.” Immediately, the Argentine received a private message from heptacampeón: “I came with me on my plane.”
Already installed in Austria, where the 11th date of the World Cup will be played, the Argentine told how that trip was: “It was the best flight of my life, something unique. Lewis had the bed prepared behind, but did not sleep on the whole flight, he will have enjoyed it too. I was with his manager. It is very special because it is my idol. It was my first flight on a private plane. I learned a lot and enjoyed it a lot. He is a very good person, also,” Franco said.
“Everyone knows that it was my idol from a very young age, also Ayrton Senna, and being able to fly with him and chat for a while was great,” Franco closed.
