F1 organisation along with host of drivers and outgoing FIA President Jean Todt urge people to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
The F1 organisation together with host of drivers and FIA’s Todt have featured on a video for NHS (UK) where they are urging people to get vaccinated against COVID-19. It features drivers speaking mostly in English with some urging in local language too.
The drivers in the campaign are Daniel Ricciardo, Lando Norris, Lewis Hamilton, Valtteri Bottas, Carlos Sainz, Max Verstappen, Nikita Mazepin, Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, Antonio Giovinazzi, Mick Schumacher, Charles Leclerc, Nicholas Latifi, George Russell, Pierre Gasly, Lance Stroll, Esteban Ocon, Yuki Tsunoda and Sergio Perez.
Only Kimi Raikkonen is missing from the list which also has Stefano Domenicali who revealed that he has had a booster dose too. The message comes at the 2021 F1 finale after a record breaking season despite the ongoing COVID-19 restrictions.
They are expanding to one more place in 2022 as new variant has likely risen the jittery. “Vaccines and boosters are out way out of this pandemic, and we need to keep everyone safe and move forward together,” said Domenicali. “I have had my vaccine and my booster and ask everyone to do the same. Formula 1 is moving ahead, and we ask for everyone to play their part.”
