Charles Leclerc becomes ‘Tom Cruise’ for one day by flying a fighter jet

Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has enjoyed his time in the US GP and is now looking for a new career. Usually, formula 1 drivers are well-trained for handling high G forces during races. They keep their neck very strong by doing neck exercises.

Now he put all his lifetime training to the test by flying a fighter jet and experiencing the same G force as Hollywood actor Tom Cruise. Leclerc’s flying adventure was posted on social media and the Ferrari driver thanked the French F1 broadcasters for allowing him to fly aircraft used for the French Air Force training mission.

Leclerc said “What an incredible opportunity Canalplis gave me to pilot such a machine. To be able to compare that speed feeling with what I usually experience in a Formula One car was very special. Stay tuned for the full experience next week.” The full video of Leclerc flying a plane will be broadcast on November 3 by the French Canal+ channel. All fighter jet pilots will undergo huge amounts of G force during their flight and they have to undergo special training to withstand all the pressure while flying in the air.

Formula 1 drivers also undergo the same kind of training so it is very easy for them to cope with that when compared to Normal people. Charles Leclerc recently won the United States Grand Prix. He is now headed to Mexico for the Mexican Grand Prix. Last year Leclerc missed the opportunity to win the Mexican GP after colliding with Sergio Perez in the opening lap. He finished third and this year he will be looking to carry the same momentum and win the 2024 Mexican GP

Max Verstappen is the championship leader followed by Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc. The Formula 1 constructors title is led by McLaren, Red Bull and Ferrari. If Ferrari continues their good form like US GP they could surpass Red Bull and compete for the constructors title this year.
