Music
The surprisingly musical side of Formula 1: drivers who produce tracks, perform live, and treat music as something more than background noise.
Leclerc learned piano as a child and has continued playing throughout his racing career. He has released original music, including piano compositions, on streaming platforms. He's described music as something that helps him process emotions, and has said that the concentration required for serious piano playing has parallels with the focus needed in racing.
Hill is a serious guitarist who plays in a band called The Lawbreakers. He performs live and has participated in celebrity charity concerts, but his musical involvement is ongoing rather than a one-off vanity project. He has described music as something that offers a form of expression completely different from motorsport, and has spoken about the joy of playing in a band as fundamentally collaborative in a way that racing isn't.
Norris's celebrity profile has brought him into contact with the music world, and he has appeared in promotional content and collaborated with artists. His social media presence overlaps significantly with music and entertainment culture, and he attends music events including festivals when the calendar allows.
Hamilton quietly released music under the alias XNDA, collaborating with Christina Aguilera on a track called 'Pipe' in 2017. He's been involved in music production for years, and has said that music is one of the few things that genuinely relaxes him. He's visited recording studios around the world during race weekends — something that reportedly surprised more than a few team personnel.
