The two fathers of Pecco and Fabio play the final duel of their children at the table. The Italian: “They go faster than everyone else because they are the bunch, it’s a movie ending”. The Frenchman: “I know how much they risk, that’s why I could never hope that Pecco will fall”

When they meet – the first free practice session has just ended – they hug. “For me it can also end here, they declare FP1 valid and I’m happy” laughs Etienne Quartararo, Fabio’s father in greeting Pietro Bagnaia.
