“I think everybody can see the appeal,” Mahomes said Wednesday. “I’ve been able to get to a couple of races now, seeing the environment, you see ‘Drive To Survive’ on Netflix and how competitive it is. We were able to go to some of those races and get a little stake in the game.” Asked if he thinks it could buy him a chance drive an F1 car some time, Mahomes said: “I don’t know if that’s in my contract. I know Veach is a big F1 guy. Maybe he’ll let me cruise around the track once but those cars are a lot of money. I don’t know if they’ll let me do that.”
“Passion for excellence on the golf course has led me to admire the same pursuit in Formula 1,” McIlroy said. “Partnering with Otro Capital in Alpine F1 is an exhilarating venture that unites my love for sports, competition, and the relentless drive to be the best.”
