And of course, padel is never far away.

The choice of a padel court to launch this promotional clip is ultimately quite logical. Cyril Hanouna is a regular practitioner and his taste for this sport is now largely associated with his image outside of film sets and studios.

So much so that padel becomes the backdrop for the start of his media comeback: while Fun Radio is waiting for him in Paris, he is still racket in hand on the court.

What follows is a race against time to get on air. A rather original way to promote this new season.

And of course, For us, as soon as a video starts on a padel court, we say yes!
