Motorsport Week + 1 more Wed 12 Aug · 11:37 UTC via Crash Franco Colapinto sends message to thieves after summer robbery Franco Colapinto, an Alpine F1 driver, experienced a robbery while vacationing in Italy during the summer break. He shared on social media that he lost several personal items, including his luggage and a mate kit, and humorously remarked about the incident, although he later deleted the post. This incident adds to a troubling trend of thefts involving F1 drivers in recent years.
Colapinto's situation is reminiscent of other drivers like Lando Norris, who had a valuable watch stolen, and Carlos Sainz, who successfully recovered his stolen timepiece. Despite this unfortunate event, Colapinto has been performing well in his second season, gaining recognition for his driving skills and earning points consistently in races.
