It is quite common for fans to see F1 racers take out some of their most luxurious cars for a spin. Carlos Sainz himself has driven some exquisite Ferrari automobiles in his four-year stint with the Prancing Horse. However, this time it was Sainz’s girlfriend and Scottish model, Rebecca Donaldson who drove a $433k Ferrari — the Purosangue.
The Purosangue is Ferrari’s first-ever SUV model. It is powered by a V12 engine and has 715 horsepower. What is remarkable about this car is that it can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds. Meanwhile, its top speed is 193 mph, and a torque of 528 lb-ft.
Per @f1gossippofficial’s Instagram handle, Donaldson drove this car for a lunch date with Guzman Colilla’s girlfriend, Francina Florit. Florit owns a clothing brand called Gin Lemon Menorca Vibes.
Florit often promotes her own brand by posting pictures of several t-shirts she wears.

Donaldson and Florit have become good friends since the former started dating Sainz, reportedly since June 2023. It’s mainly because Colilla has Sainz as one of his clients since 2019 for his sports media company, The Crown Creators in Spain.
Sainz and Colilla continue to work together closely
Per DB Journey, Colilla once said that – “I don’t believe in luck. I believe in perfectly timed connections, self-belief and knowing when to take a leap of faith and it’s served me well”.
It is his connection with Sainz that is working out best for him right now after the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, former Los Blancos captain Marcelo, and six-time UEFA Champions League winner Luka Modric at Real Madrid. Before starting his own company, Colilla played a huge role in helping the Los Blancos hit over 300 million followers across all its social media channels.
His work with Sainz has gone to the next level as he helped the Spanish driver make a first-of-its-kind limited edition bike, S-Works Tarmac SL8 from Specialized Bicycle Components. It has given Sainz a new identity as someone who loves cycling as well.
Colilla handles Sainz’s social media pages too and dedicated a special post to him for finishing third at the Miami Grand Prix 2022, which saw the likes of Tom Brady, David Beckham and Pharrell Williams attend the race.

With Sainz moving to Williams Racing, it will be interesting to see if Colilla manages to cover and publicize him well enough like he did during his stint at Ferrari. Now that both of them also have stable personal lives at the moment and their respective partners get along, this friendship is set to stay for a long period of time.
