Formula 1 drivers often complain that the burden of taking part in various promotional and sponsor events is too high, and that it can even affect their results on track. On the one hand, they are perhaps right; on the other, what could be nicer than thousands of fans applauding you — that’s exactly what happened at Carlos Sainz’s meeting with the Mexican public, organized in Mexico City by the local branch of Puma, one of the Williams team’s partners. The meeting also included Selma del Toro, whose blog is dedicated to Formula 1 — she aspires to be one of the local influencers. She has known the Spanish driver at least since his win at last year’s Mexican Grand Prix. Mind you, one joker commented on the photos she shared: “Watch out, Rebecca! He likes blondes!” Of course the remark was addressed to Sainz’s girlfriend, Scottish model Rebecca Donaldson, but that’s another story. The main thing is that the fans in Mexico gave Sainz a genuine ovation, hardly any less than the one we saw and heard in Austin after he finished third in the Saturday sprint. After that, Carlos, sharing an impressive video on his social media pages, wrote: “Thanks, Mexico! I feel at home here!”
