Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris Captain Teams With Other F1 Drivers in Friendly Golf Tournament

The three days of Bahrain testing are finally concluded. The F1 drivers just got done with the hectic and much important testing prior to the first race. Now it’s time for some leisure, cause why not? The drivers are to indulge themselves in some sporting actions other than F1. The sport they have chosen is Golf, where Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris will captain two teams ahead of a friendly tournament. Apart from Leclerc and Norris, Carlos Sainz, Sergio Perez, and Alex Albon are also set to participate.

Talking about the golfing session, Lando Norris conveyed, “My group is Carlos, Checo, and myself. It was Carlos Sr. as well but he had to leave sadly, so we are down a player. Charles left our group to join Alex‘s group. We invited him and he declined.”

So as it stands, Lando Norris, Carlos Sainz, and Sergio Perez are on one team. And Charles Leclerc and Alex Albon in the other team. Leclerc further asserted on Alex Albon in an interview regarding this, “Aww he is so nice…He has my phone number, so he can text me.
