Williams Formula 1 drivers Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon have reminisced about their favourite off-track memory of the 2025 season, when they raced kit cars around Interlagos for the Brazilian Grand Prix drivers' parade.
The drivers had branded kit cars with one driver per team and a pickup-style seat across the back for the passenger. As Sainz and Albon walked to the grid and clocked that there was one car per team, they quickly raced each other to the driver's seat. It was ultimately Albon who got behind the wheel before pushing flat out down the start/finish straight, only to realise it wasn't as fast as they would have liked.
