Like Max Verstappen, who was dining extensively with Kelly Piquet and some others, Carlos Sainz is still enjoying the winter break in Formula 1. The season does not start until mid-March, and with winter testing is fast approaching, Sainz took advantage of his winter break in the ski slopes. That is clear after the TikTok he posted during the winter break.

The Williams driver's TikTok shows him getting up early to explore the ski slopes during his winter sports holiday. "Never miss a fresh powder day," which earned him a distinctive reply. "This is new to the admin," said Williams' official account.

On his Instagram, the Formula 1 driver also shared several photos showing him skiing in the mountains. "Good weekend spent in the mountains," he captioned the photos on his Instagram.

Williams comes up with creative name

This Formula 1 season, Sainz will be Alexander Albon' s teammate at the Williams team. As we know, Lewis Hamilton has taken Sainz's place at Ferrari, so the Spaniard had to look for another team. That ended up being James Vowles ' team. Meanwhile, the first photo of Sainz and Albon together has also become a reality. The Williams team has also already picked a spiffy name for the duo: Carbon! A mix between Carlos and Albon, of course. Check out Sainz's TikTok and the photo with Albon below.
