Ferrari driver releases debut RAP single as signs of Scuderia supergroup emerge

Ferrari reserve driver Robert Shwartzman has released his first single, called 'ACTIVE'.

The 23-year-old, who raced under a Russian license until 2022 when the FIA's ban on Russian drivers, is somehow the second Ferrari contracted driver to release a track in 2023.

Shwartzman's song is markedly different from Charles Leclerc's instrumental piano track though, a rap track which – looking at the hashtags on his tweet launching the song – appears to have been released under the name 'Shwartzy'.

F1 and music: together again

"ACTIVE is out now!!!" he posted on Twitter.

𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐄 is out now!!!👾

Huge thanks to everyone who has helped me out on this and supported me! 🙏🏼

Let me know what you think 🫶🏼#shwartzy #levelup #active pic.twitter.com/tEAmTZUKAi

"Huge thanks to everyone who has helped me out on this and supported me! Let me know what you think."

The Israeli-born driver is continuing a fine history of Formula 1 drivers (albeit only as a test/reserve driver himself) kicking off some musical endeavours.

As well as the aforementioned Leclerc, Lewis Hamilton has featured on a Christina Aguilera song and former world champion Damon Hill appeared on a Def Leppard track in 1999. Yes, really.

If Maranello keeps pumping out tunes at this rate though, we could have a Ferrari supergroup forming...
