Da Austin allo spazio 🇮🇹🌌 Huge honour to welcome pilot of the Artemis III @astro_luca to the garage! 🚀
23 Oct 2026
🇮🇹
Ieri abbiamo avuto la bellissima opportunità di entrare nel paddock Mercedes, conoscere Kimi Antonelli, trascorrere del tempo con lui e scoprire da vicino un mondo che normalmente vediamo solo attraverso le gare.
Grazie ai team ESA, Mercedes e Pirelli, abbiamo visitato il garage, osservato ingegneri e meccanici al lavoro e compreso qualcosa in più della straordinaria complessità che si nasconde dietro una monoposto di Formula 1.
Ma ciò che mi ha colpito di più sono le analogie tra due mondi apparentemente lontani: la Formula 1 e l’esplorazione spaziale.
Celebriamo il pilota che taglia il traguardo e l’astronauta che parte per una missione. Vediamo molto meno il lavoro di chi, dietro le quinte, rende possibili quei risultati.
È stato bello vedere Kimi e Luca insieme: due generazioni e due percorsi diversi, uniti dalla tecnologia, dalla capacità di affrontare il rischio e dalla fiducia nel lavoro di squadra.
Perché l’eccellenza può avere un volto, ma è sempre il risultato di un lavoro collettivo.
Grazie a tutti coloro che hanno reso possibile questa giornata! 🏎️🚀

Yesterday we had the wonderful opportunity to step inside the Mercedes F1 paddock, meet Kimi Antonelli, spend time with him and discover a world we usually only see on race weekends.
Thanks to the ESA, Mercedes and Pirelli teams, we toured the garage, watched engineers and mechanics at work and learned more about the extraordinary complexity behind a Formula 1 car.
What struck me most, though, was how much Formula 1 and space exploration have in common.
We celebrate the driver crossing the finish line and the astronaut heading into space. We rarely see all the people working behind the scenes to make those achievements possible.
It was lovely to see Kimi and Luca together: two generations, two different paths, connected by technology, the courage to face risk and a deep trust in teamwork.
Because excellence may have a face, but it is always a collective achievement.
Thank you to everyone who made this day possible! 🏎️🚀

If we were on our way back from the moon, stuck inside our spacesuit after an emergency depressurisation, we’d have to use this special helmet valve to hydrate and get our calories from specially designed food.

In case of emergency depressurisation, astronauts must build their re-entry seats while in a pressurised suit at 4.3psi. That’s the same pressure of an EVA suit, so most of us have some experience with it. Very grateful for the great training!

Luca Parmitano has spent more than 365 days in space and completed multiple spacewalks. 🚀
But this time, the mission was on Earth.
After racing Kona as an ambassador in 2014, he returned having earned his place at the start line. Luca, you are an IRONMAN World Championship finisher!

There will be time for many words and many other pictures - but for now, just this one photo and a single word: #deliverance.
11 Oct 2026
The day before an Ironman is always a confusing mix of feelings: on one side I tell myself that this is just a hobby, and it doesn’t matter how well I do - this is already a victory lap, as qualifying for the world championship was always the goal. And then I start thinking about the waves, heat, wind, fatigue… and it can be hard to focus on why I’m here. So, today I’ll practice switching my mental projection from ‘why am I here?’ to ‘wow, I’m here!’, smile and be grateful for the privilege. #ironmanworldchampionship #kona

The Artemis III astronauts are deep into training for their mission — 40 feet deep to be exact, since they’re at the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory!
The crew recently completed water survival training, during which they practiced exiting an Orion PORT (Post-landing Orion Recovery Test) mockup in stormy and nighttime conditions. This prepares the crew for the unlikely scenario of landing too far off-course and needing to wait for recovery. We think they made a splash. ✨
