F1 drivers pay tribute to driver Anthoine Hubert

Frenchman Anthoine Hubert died two years ago in a heavy crash during the Formula 2 race at Spa-Francorchamps. Several Formula 1 drivers commemorate the driver this weekend during the Belgian Grand Prix.

Pierre Gasly paid tribute to the late driver. The two were close friends and had known each other since karting at a young age. Gasly laid flowers at the scene of the incident.

For you my friend.

For Charles Leclerc, it is also an emotional weekend. The Ferrari driver scored his first F1 victory during the weekend Hubert passed away. The Monegasque also knew the driver well.

Always have so many emotions when I come back to Spa. A place where I got my first win in F1 but also where I lost a good friend. Thinking about you @AnthoineH pic.twitter.com/PNv47JtVnY
