LONDON (Reuters) - Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is aiming for a top 10 finish when he joins Red Bull's Alexander Albon and five other regular Formula One racers for Sunday's virtual Chinese Grand Prix.

The 1.99 metre tall Belgian international is a serious gamer and has become an esports regular during the COVID-19 lockdown, with both the soccer and motor racing seasons on hold, as athletes compete online from home.
