Driver Franco Colapinto returned to Argentina with Alpine after completing the 2025 Formula 1 season and is using the break to downgrade before starting preparations for next year.
According to reports, Pilar’s driver is taking rest days while the team works on a new model with which they want to make a leap in performance.
In his first hours in the country, Colapinto combined relaxation and social life by attending an Airbag concert, playing paddle tennis with former soccer player Carlos Tevez and having dinner with his friend Bizarrap.
However, in the last few hours he surprised everyone with an appearance away from the flashbulbs as he traveled to San Andrés de Giles, a city in Buenos Aires about 60 kilometers from his hometown.
There he moved with his family with complete confidence and, accompanied by his father Aníbal Colapinto, entered a supermarket in the city, where he caused a stir among employees and customers.
