GP Explorer 2: an unique motorsport event
Following the successful first edition, Squeezie is inviting 60,000 fans to attend the crazy Formula 4 race on 9 September. Behind the wheel, 24 content creators will compete in teams of two drivers on the famous Le Mans Bugatti circuit. Among them, 12 will be participating for the first time. Since February, all the drivers have been coached by Pierre Sancinena, 2018 GT4 International Cup winner, commissioned by the FFSA for the occasion.
"Following an incredible first edition, we are delighted to contribute again in the GP Explorer. This unique race brings together young communities from different backgrounds to introduce them to motorsport, something Alpine has fully invested in since its creation. We look forward to following the progress of these three teams, from their preparation to the race," Laurent Rossi, Alpine CEO.
"Alpine is doing us the honour of following us in this GP season 2. They had supported us in the GP explorer season 1, which was an honour that they trusted us. They had decided to support us, us, big noobs of the automobile, whereas it is a historical brand, extraordinary, which moreover is a team of Formula 1. So thank you very much Alpine for being back on the GP Explorer 2", explains Squeezie during his live presentation.
Commenting on the livery, he said: "Both of their cars are among the most beautiful, don't we agree? The Alpine identity is superb, are we influenced because we see it in F1 every Sunday? Maybe... Even I'm jealous...".
