Being a part of Formula One, we know that 100 percent concentration 100 percent of the time behind the wheel is essential if you want to win on track. And on the track, there are no streetlights, pedestrians, animals or other factors which could cause an incident if you’re not focused. That’s why the Team is continuing its support of AT&T’s It Can Wait campaign.
It Can Wait shares a simple message: Please don’t drive distracted. The campaign aims to encourage all drivers to take a pledge that they will always drive distraction-free by never allowing their phone to endanger them or others when they are behind the wheel.
