Former Ferrari teammates Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz rented a van and went on a road trip home to Monaco after their flight from the Azerbaijan Grand Prix landed in Italy due to bad weather.
Leclerc, who finished a disappointing ninth in Sunday’s race in Baku while Sainz was third in Williams’ first proper Formula One podium since 2017, posted a viral video of the impromptu trip on Instagram.

“So after a very difficult weekend in Baku I thought it couldn’t get any worse but…,” Leclerc intoned in darkness before the camera panned around to show his vehicle entering a tunnel.
“A two-hour drive, we will make it in one hour and a half,” joked the Spaniard, who lost his seat at Ferrari to seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton at the end of last year.
Hamilton has yet to stand on the podium with his new team in 17 races.
