Double blow for Romain Grosjean: the former F1 driver, who announced his arrival on Canal + on Monday, will also become a consultant for the newspaper L'Equipe, the sports daily announced on Friday.

The 34-year-old Franco-Swiss driver will write a column at each Grand Prix in L'Equipe, as the Formula 1 season kicks off this weekend in Bahrain.

On Canal +, Grosjean will also be a consultant this year, on some F1 grand prix.

Because, as he explains in an interview posted online by L'Equipe, he wants to prioritize his new career in the United States.

Romain Grosjean ended his career as an F1 driver after his spectacular accident at the Bahrain Grand Prix on November 29, but this year he became an Indycar driver in the United States, with the Dale Coyne Racing team. .
