some notes from Pierre’s World of Warcraft stream with Zoltan today (12th of October 2022):
he will have a new helmet in Austin, said it was his fave helmet of the season
he had to stay quiet the last couple of weeks (about the Alpine deal) and it’s great to no longer have to
when asked about gamers among the drivers, he said that he used to play FIFA with Max and he talked about how he used to play with Lewis too (didn’t say which game)
the guy who trained the people who did the GP Explorer is a good friend of his dad and he actually trained Pierre for his first times in a single seater
he explained that usually, they can’t breathe during corners so they have to do it in the straights but this year it hasn’t been easy to rest during the straights because of porpoising
about an hour before the race, he takes an espresso and then naps for about 20 minutes (yeah, in that order)
he needs to sleep about 8 hours per night to feel great
he can kind of eat what he wants with how much weight he’s losing every race but he eat healthy because between the travels and everything, it’s important to stay strong
he lost 2.5 kgs in Singapore
he would like to do the 24h of Le Mans at one point
someone asked about his relationship with Daniel and he had so most adorable answer where he said he was really good friend with Daniel, said that Daniel is a great guy, humble, a good racer, and Pierre said that he was sad about Daniel’s situation and that it would suck to not have him on the grid
he likes to go to the US during winter break for training
he’s a good friend of Fabio Quartararo
he loves watching a lot of sports but mostly football, tennis, the NBA
he went to the Milan-Chelsea Champions League game yesterday and is going to Paris-OM on Sunday
he lives for competition, has been banned from playing some card games with his friends and his friends rally against him (make strategies together to make him lose) sometimes, jokingly said that no one wants to play cards with him anymore
Monaco is his favourite GP
about what happened in Japan, he said he’s been having talks with the president of the FIA and he mentionned that on Sunday night, he had nightmares about what happened
