Charaf-Eddin Ait-Tales may be visually impaired, but when it comes to Formula 1, as a superfan of the sport, he can see the action just as clearly as the next guy.
A casual encounter between Charaf - a regular visitor to the paddock - and F1 presenter Will Buxton led the latter to request a special favor from F1 Experiences - the promotional arm of F1 that puts fans in the heart of the action.
One component of that unit is its two-seater F1 car which pounds around on race weekends with Zsolt Baumgartner at the wheel, giving lucky fans a sense of Grand Prix exhilaration.
Buxton was so impressed with Charaf's passion with F1 that he secured a slot for the 29-year-old Frenchman onboard the two-seater last week in Spain.
The video conveys all the excitement and elation felt by its entranced passenger, and it's a feel-good story for everyone, F1 fan or not!
When a visually-impaired, lifelong #F1 fan gets to try it for real
