Romain Grosjean made an emotional return to the Formula 1 cockpit on Friday, climbing back into familiar colors with Haas at Mugello.
It marked the Frenchman’s first time driving an F1 car since his terrifying accident in Bahrain back in 2020, a crash that ended his Grand Prix career sooner than expected.
After years of waiting – and a promised Mercedes test that never came to fruition – it was his former team who opened the door, handing him the keys to their 2023 machine for a special TPC outing.
Grosjean rolled out wearing a helmet with a deeply personal touch: a design created by his children, originally intended for the Abu Dhabi finale he never got to race. Nearly five years later, the helmet finally saw the track.
Despite wet conditions at Mugello, the slick track likely did nothing to dampen Grosjean’s infectious joy, as he relished every moment of his long-awaited return to the F1 cockpit.
