Scuderia Ferrari Spanish driver Carlos Sainz became the target of an attempted theft in Milan on Sunday night, just hours after securing a third-place finish in the Italian Grand Prix.
The Ferrari sensation had his wristwatch taken during the incident, but it was later successfully retrieved by him and his team. Fortunately, the Spanish driver is reported to be unharmed after the encounter. Nevertheless, it has cast a shadow over what had been a positive day for the Scuderia.
According to accounts from Italy, Sainz encountered three individuals outside the Armani Hotel in Milan. These individuals managed to seize his wristwatch. However, Sainz and a group of bystanders sprang into action, pursuing the culprits and detaining them until the police arrived on the scene.
Subsequently, a video emerged depicting Carlos Sainz and members of his team engaged in discussions with Italian law enforcement officers beside a police vehicle.
