Williams driver Carlos Sainz made his Cannes Film Festival debut recently and, as expected, he left a lasting impression. Looking stunning in a black suit and a bowtie, Sainz looked dapper as he arrived on the Cannes red carpet. He was joined by actor Eva Longoria at the event as the new brand ambassador of L’Oréal. He has dropped pictures of his Cannes appearance on Instagram.

Carlos Sainz shared his first look from the hotel on Instagram. Sainz wrote, “Acting serious.” He said, “Smooth operator” as he walked from the room to the balcony of his hotel to give a good glimpse of his look. A comment on the video read: “His name is: Operator. Smooth Operator music of James Bond” Reacting to the video, a fan wrote, “Can someone cast him in a James Bond’s movie?” Another said, “We are getting Spanish James Bond before GTA 6.”

The post was followed by Sainz’s pictures from the Cannes red carpet. “First time in @festivaldecannes Thank you @lorealparis for having me!” Sainz wrote in the caption. A fan commented on the post, “Dear Lord, when i get to heaven….” Another praised him saying, “It would appear that Lord Sainz has caused quite the stir… indeed, this author finds herself in urgent need of a fan.”

The third post showed Cannes’ car ride to the venue, him getting ready for the film festival and then resting after the event, and some candid clicks in the hotel balcony. “Cannes, it’s been a pleasure @lorealparis,” the F1 driver wrote.

Taking to his Instagram Stories, Sainz also shared a picture with Eva Longoria, who looked stunning in a majestic glistening gown with a black train. He also spoke about joining L’Oréal as a new brand ambassador and congratulated Longoria for celebrating her 20 years of association with the beauty brand.Also Read: Carlos Sainz Sr reportedly eyeing FIA presidency ahead of high-stakes 2025 election showdown Sainz will next be seen competing at the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix in Imola, Italy, this weekend.
