Giovinazzi provides six appeal

Leclerc, Albon, Russell, Latifi and Norris will also be competing

Antonio Giovinazzi has added his name to the list of Formula 1 drivers who will be competing in the next round of the F1 Esports Virtual Grand Prix.

Alfa Romeo's Giovinazzi joins Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, Williams duo George Russell and Nicolas Latifi, Lando Norris of McLaren and Red Bull's Alex Albon for Sunday's 28-lap race around Melbourne's Albert Park.

Giovinazzi will be partnered by former F1 driver Johnny Herbert, who finished 13th in the opening round in Bahrain in March.

Although the 26-year-old Italian has competed on various sim platforms and with different software, it will be his debut venture on the official Formula One game.

The six F1 drivers will be on the grid alongside a number of celebrities that includes England's all-round star and World Cup hero Ben Stokes.
