After months of speculation over where he would end up ahead of his Ferrari exit, Sainz eventually settled on Williams as his new team.

The 30-year-old racer recently revealed a heartwarming parting gift that Ferrari had bestowed on him and his family, where the F1 star and his father, rally legend Carlos Sainz Sr., took to the track together in Fiorano, both behind the wheel of Ferrari F1 cars.

In a post to his personal Instagram page, the Spaniard thanked Ferrari, delivering an emotional message as his official exit looms.

"Wrapping up my time with @scuderiaferrari at Fiorano by driving with my dad with the car I won in Silverstone, was the perfect way to close these four seasons.
