Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz's girlfriends Alexandra and Rebecca bond in Mexico as viral photos capture their comfort at F1 Grand Prix

Apart from Ferrari duo Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz being good friends, their girlfriends Alexandra Saint Mleux and Rebecca Donaldson are also quite close. Pictures of the girls bonding during the Mexican Grand Prix have gone viral on social media.

Leclerc and Saint Mleux made their relationship public in May 2023. Since then, the TikTok star and art connaisseur has been a regular sighting in Ferrari's garage, cheering the young Monegasque driver. Meanwhile, Sainz and Donaldson have yet to openly acknowledge their relationship. However, the former jokingly claimed in an interview along with Leclerc that he would get married to Donaldson in Vegas.

While the two Ferrari drivers are usually busy on Grand Prix weekends, Saint Mleux and Donaldson are often seen bonding and supporting their boyfriends through the ups and downs every race week. Recently, the girls were seen spending time together at the Autodromo Hermanoz Rodriguez. Pictures of the two from the race day (Oct. 27th) have gone viral on the microblogging platform X.

Here's a look at a couple of posts shared by a Leclerc and Sainz fan page.

"more than charles & carlos, i am incredibly fond that rebecca and alex also have each other, giving comfort that a friend can offer, whether it be highs and lows of their boyfriends."

"forms of comfort like this from friends goes a looooooooong way."

While Sainz is set to leave Ferrari at the end of the 2024 season (to make way for Lewis Hamilton), the close friendship between Saint Mleux and Donaldson could probably continue over the years.

"It was a perfect drive and a perfect weekend" - Ferrari's team boss Fred Vasseur on the team's near-perfect race weekend in Mexico

After Ferrari's second 1-2 finish for the 2024 season in Austin, the scarlet-red-colored team had a near-perfect race weekend in Mexico, with Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc ending 1st and 3rd, respectively. The Scuderia's team boss Fred Vasseur shared his opinion on the Mexican weekend during a post-race media interaction.

"It was a perfect weekend because from FP1 (Sainz) was always on the pace, always there. The pole, he did two times the pole with the two laps and today he had the perfect drive because he gave up the first corner because it was a bit tight. He was clever to give up the position and then to come back and to overtake Max (Verstappen), I think it was a perfect drive and a perfect weekend," Vasseur said, explaining Sainz's weekend.

"(Leclerc) lost three or four seconds in the traffic with some idiots and he came back, pushed a little too much, lost a little bit in the tyres in the traffic and honestly these guys, they have to respect the blue flag and I don’t understand why the FIA didn’t give them a penalty," he added, elaborating on Leclerc's troubles during the race.

As of now, Ferrari is placed second in the Constructors' table. With four races to go, the Italian squad is just 29 points behind the current leader Mclaren.
