A real enthusiast. While tens of thousands of spectators are expected throughout this weekend at the GP of Belgium from Formula one in Spa-Francorchamps, there are several hundred volunteers to live another experience.
Among these, this 18-year-old did not count the kilometers to take on this role. Arrived straight from… Lyon (France), Grégory Cerqueir has traveled nearly 700 kilometers to put himself at the service of motorists who disembark at the Ardennes circuit. With his recognizable steward chasuble, he is loaded, at a roundabout a few hundred meters from the circuit, to guide the flow of car in the right direction. “”I am here to manage traffic, from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. for three days: Friday, Saturday and Sunday. “ A slightly ungrateful job in the eyes of some, but not to those of the young Frenchman. “”This is the very first time that I have come here and it is a nice experience. I have been a fan of Formula one for several years. I like to help, I am a volunteer and when I saw this opportunity in Belgium, I did not hesitate and I am sure that it will be useful for my future “says the young man. “”I signed up on the internet and I had to write a cover letter in the hope of being selected. Then I was taken “he says with pride.
