Éric BOULLIER
from IPSA to Formula 1
“95% of Formula 1 and motorsport in general are very similar to aeronautics, whether it’s the processes, the materials, the trades… I was passionate about aviation, I was also passionate about motorsport because I was born next to Le Mans, with the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans. I told myself that before pursuing a career in aviation, I’d try to see what I could do in motorsport.
