As Carlos Sainz took his new Williams for its first spin at Silverstone, an old love returned to him on Valentine’s Day.
Carlos Sainz reunited with an old love on Valentine’s Day when he tested his new Williams for the first time at Silverstone. The Spanish racer, who will be racing alongside Alex Albon, completed two laps in the new FW47 machine. Despite moving from Ferrari, Sainz’s personal sponsors, like Santander, have continued their support, prominently displayed on the special testing livery. The official 2025 livery will be revealed at the F1 75 launch event in London, but on Valentine’s Day, Sainz and his long-time sponsor Estrella Galicia renewed their partnership. Sainz had to put his Estrella Galicia deal on hold during his time with Ferrari, as the team had an agreement with Peroni. Now, following his departure after Hamilton took his seat, Sainz is back with Estrella Galicia.
