Celebrating a Special Bond
The world of motorsport often brings together families, and the recent send-off for Carlos Sainz at Ferrari was no different. This occasion was especially poignant as it featured not just Carlos, but also his legendary father, Carlos Sainz Sr., the distinguished two-time world rally champion and four-time Dakar rally winner. Their participation on the track at Fiorano was a testament to their close-knit bond and shared passion for racing.
The End of a Ferrari Era

There’s something truly heartwarming about witnessing a father and son sharing their love for racing, especially in the iconic red machines of Ferrari. It was not just a goodbye to the Scuderia but also a celebration of the journey they’ve had together in the world of motorsports.
