LONDON: Formula One fans can buy individual squares on the race-ending chequered flag, starting with next month’s season-opening Austrian Grand Prix, to help raise money for charity, it announced yesterday.
The sport said 56 of the black and white squares will be available for fans to have their name printed on, with the remaining 24 allotted to the race promoter, as part of a #WeRaceAsOne initiative. That initiative, launched yesterday, aims to combat racism and promote diversity while also helping those affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The squares, which will be mounted and framed afterwards, will be sold for £200 ($250.50) each.
