Special guest in the Ferrari garage: Portuguese football manager José Mourinho made a high-profile appearance in the Scuderia Ferrari pit box at Silverstone. The iconic coach, known for his success in European football, was invited as a guest of honour for the 2025 British Grand Prix.
During his visit, José Mourinho had the opportunity to immerse himself in the atmosphere of Formula 1 and enjoy the behind-the-scenes experience with the Maranello-based team. He also had the honour of presenting the official Pirelli Award, traditionally given to the driver who secures pole position during qualifying. That recognition went to Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen, who had set the fastest time and earned the right to start from the front of the grid.
José Mourinho’s presence added an extra touch of star power to the Silverstone weekend, drawing attention both from motorsport fans and international media alike.
