The race boots and gloves for the female drivers are emblazoned with the emblematic pink ribbon, the symbol of breast cancer awareness, and are coming in the signature colours of the breast cancer awareness campaign.

October has traditionally been the month to raise awareness for breast cancer since the 1980s.

PUMA is proud to support this worldwide campaign, as part of the brand’s “She Moves Us” platform, which highlights the women who move sport and culture forward and inspire others around the world.

“The month of October is an opportunity to elevate awareness about the impact of breast cancer, and to raise funds to support breast cancer research and prevention organization,” says PUMA’s Global Director of Brand Marketing Adam Petrick. “We are extremely thankful for the support of W Series and the willingness of our drivers to use their platforms to draw attention to this important topic.”

Linking up with LBN Team member Dany Neville, Valtteri spent an afternoon on the track. “The sound of the V8 is incredible, and you can smell the melting rubber from the tires. It’s really really cool,” explained Valtteri.

“I’ve taken part in a lot of rallies - I suppose I have done some drifting in a way - because the techniques of car control are very similar; but I haven’t done anything like this before with a proper drift car and on an asphalt drift track.”

Bottas continues: “I’ve been driving cars since I was six years old, so that for sure helps - but for sure the things that helped me the most is my experience from rallying. In rallying you are always sliding the car and controlling the throttle, the weight transfer, the balance, and everything very differently to how you would drive an F1 car.”
