Carlos Sainz is moving into his 3rd season for his dream team in Maranello. After a mixed bag of results in 2022, he looks to make amends for the new season this year. The Ferrari driver usually may hang out with his best friend and former teammate Lando Norris during the off-season. Though, as the 2023 pre-season is approaching, Carlos seems to have switched this approach to probably focus on his world championship ambitions.

As per his latest Instagram post, Sainz revealed to have found a new “workout teammate” for this pre-season. This post has Carlos Sainz warming up alongside Moto GP champion Marc Marquez. The caption of the post reads, “Found a new workout teammate 💪🏼 for the preseason!”

Apparently, Sainz seems to have ditched his best friend Lando Norris and even his Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc in a rather unapologetic manner. The Spaniard may have grown a good bond with Marquez during this off-season as he had hung out with the 6-time Moto GP champion.

The Spanish motorsport duo appeared in a joint interview for Estrella Galicia 0,0. Both Sainz and Marquez have been discussing several things with each other recently including the FIFA World Cup.

Nonetheless, Leclerc and Norris may do some banter about this with Sainz during the F1 season. Though for now, Carlos shall prepare with Marc in top spirit to get ready for each of their seasons.
