When Isack fired up the RB7 in VCARB livery, the atmosphere shifted. The sound of the V8 tore through Magny-Cours as he pushed the car through its paces, before bringing the crowd to its feet with a burst of doughnuts at the iconic Adelaide hairpin.
The day was about more than just spectacle. On stage alongside Sébastien Buemi, Isack lifted his first Formula 1 trophy — the one he claimed earlier this season at the Dutch Grand Prix — in front of a home crowd that has supported him since the beginning. It was a moment of pride, not only for him, but for everyone who’s followed his journey into the sport.
True to Red Bull spirit, Motormania wasn’t short on head-to-head battles. Isack went wheel-to-wheel with Sébastien Loeb in the Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak before a Time Attack showdown with Dani Pedrosa on the KTM RC16. For Isack, racing childhood idols on home turf made the day even more surreal.

Looking back on the experience, Isack said:
“Driving an F1 car in France for the first time, in front of my home crowd, was unbelievable. Facing Dani and Seb — two legends I grew up watching — made it even more special. I felt the warmth of the French fans all day, and I’ll never forget this experience.”
Isack Hadjar For Isack and for everyone who packed into Magny-Cours, Red Bull Motormania was more than a show. It was a celebration of French motorsport, of the fans, and of a driver whose journey is only just beginning.
