Пилоти от всевъзможни автомобилни и мотоциклетни шампионати се озоваха вкъщи заедно с гражданите на редица страни в Европа в опит да се забави разпространението на COVID-19. Пандемията отложи стотици спортни събития, големи турнири бяха пренасрочени за следващата година. Организаторите на първенствата с коли и мотори се надяват да ги възобновят, когато ситуацията бъде овладяна. Дотогава състезателите трябва да се забавляват самостоятелно в домашни условия и това доведе до интересни сцени, споделени в социалните мрежи.
Люис Хамилтън например потренира в Австралия, тъй като реши да остане там малко по-дълго. Ландо Норис и Макс Верстапен се отдадоха на любимите си игри. Състезатели от MotoGP пък демонстрираха как използват времето вкъщи.
Gutted to not be qualifying today. I decided to stick around Melbourne and go indoor rock climbing. It’s a great way for me to keep focused.
I just wanted to say thanks to all of you who have been sending me such positive messages. Hope you are all staying safe. ?? pic.twitter.com/aj4CvgF4sV— Lewis Hamilton (@LewisHamilton) March 14, 2020
Making the best of the situation ??♂️
Thanks to the guys at @urbnsurf for letting me spend my evenings practicing my surf and to @ripcurl for providing the wetsuits. It was a lot of fun catching waves with you ??
Until next time Melbourne. pic.twitter.com/BQxtp1oqjr— Lewis Hamilton (@LewisHamilton) March 15, 2020
Coronavirus can make people nervous, but I want to reassure you all to stay calm. Don’t forget that handwashing is the most important thing you can do to protect yourself and others. For official NHS advice visit: https://t.co/zH7Ce2dRAw #coronavirus #COVID19 @NHSuk pic.twitter.com/Gr1SGRK5FE

Състезателите се занимават с тренировки навън, където това е възможно или у дома. Други усъвършенстват качествата си на видео игри и дори участват в стриймове на състезания
