Yuki Tsunoda has been spotted helping with the clear-up after the horrendous flooding in Italy.

F1 fans have spotted Yuki Tsunoda in footage from the aftermath of the floods in Faenza, Italy. The Japanese driver can be seen helping with the clearing up of the streets in the background of the video. 

Tsunoda moved to Faenza at the end of his first season in F1 to be close to the AlphaTauri headquarters. The area, along with the Emilia Romagna area of Italy has been hit with horrendous flooding which has sadly lost nine lives and displaced thousands of people.

The AlphaTauri driver shared an emotional message to social media when it was confirmed that the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix was cancelled this weekend. He wrote:

"After a terrible night, the town has been heavily affected: dust, mud, and the smell of gasoline pervade the surroundings.

"Many people are currently struggling to find food and shelter, having been evacuated from their own homes. Your help in any way would be greatly appreciated."

Fans have been sharing the footage of Tsunoda helping with the clear-up, which he hasn't posted about himself. Formula Nerds posted to Twitter:

"Here’s @yukitsunoda07!! What a horrible sight seeing the streets like that as the water clears"

Formula Racers posted a photo of Tsunoda, writing:

"Here's Yuki Tsunoda in the streets of Faenza, helping in the recovery from the recent flooding. So admirable"

Another F1 fan posted a photo of Tsunoda with two other men who are also helping to clear up the streets.

Someone else shared the video footage with the caption:

"Yuki Tsunoda lending a hand to the people of Faenza! . In the aftermath of heavy rains, he rolled up his sleeves and joined them in shoveling mud. True humility and solidarity. Keep shining on and off the track, Yuki!"
