Beckham, Aguero and their fellow racing rookies will be “paired and embedded within Formula E’s elite race teams and drivers” as they spend six weeks getting to grips with life behind the wheel. All of those involved will receive “an intense training programme that includes simulator sessions, physical conditioning, driver coaching, hardware customisation and engineering briefings”.
THE GOSSIP
After discovering what it is like to perform at the very top of motorsport, their skills will be put to the test during a track event at the Miami International Autodrome (Hard Rock Stadium) on March 5-6 – as they race electric cars that are capable of doing 0-60mph/100kph in just 1.82 seconds, making them 30 per cent faster than Formula 1 cars.
GettyWHAT BROOKLYN BECKHAM SAID
Brooklyn Beckham, the oldest son of Manchester United legend and current Inter Miami co-owner David, has said of the Formula E experience: “I’ve loved motorsport all my life, so when the opportunity came to be a part of Evo Sessions with Formula E, I jumped at the chance. I love it as a sport, but it’s an incredible opportunity to actually get behind the wheel and experience what it takes to compete at the top level of motorsport. The performance of the cars is insane, so I’m pleased I’ll be learning from the best in how to get the most out of them.”
