The wall between gaming and motorsport is narrowing down with time. Many F1 drivers have already showcased a great interest in gaming. Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris even started streaming during the global pandemic. Further, the latter even started his eSports organization called Team Quadrant.

Lando Norris is a young Formula One prodigy who drives for the McLaren F1 team. He is one of the best drivers on the grid. But aside from racing, he has also shown an outstanding talent for video games. After the end of the 2022 F1 season, he recently hung out with the pro gamer and streamer Shroud.

Further, the 23-year-old Formula One driver also shared Instagram stories of him playing Assetto Corsa Competizione and tagging the professional gamer. He also wrote a story, “Driving ACC with Shroud.” But the main reason behind this collaboration is the Logitech G Challenge 2022.
