Colapinto is enjoying his vacation: the padel match with Bizarrap and a legend
The Argentine Alpine driver took advantage of the Formula 1 break to train and have fun at an event that combined sports and humor
Franco Colapinto took a few days of well-deserved rest during the Formula 1 break for the European summer. The 22-year-old Argentine driver traveled to Barcelona to visit his friend and padel legend Fernando Belasteguín. Together, they played a match in which Bizarrap, a key figure in the Alpine driver's campaign and close to his circle, also participated.
Colapinto shared a photo on his social media with Belasteguín and Bizarrap, while the padel player posted a video celebrating the fun day. "The three guests have quite a bit of room for improvement (Juan is the best of the three)," joked Belasteguín, and added: "Franco could be their coach. Álvaro, it's better if we don't talk about the result, but we hope they'll invite us to dinner."

Colapinto and Bizarrap's response came quickly and with good humor: "We bombarded you with shots with Bizarrap, cat," said the driver, and the DJ added: "The COL - BIZ duo is coming in strong. Give me two more lessons and I'll be plowing through."
This isn't the first time Colapinto has trained with Belasteguín. They had already spent a week together between the British and Belgian Grands Prix, when the driver thanked his friend and host for the support.
