Carlos Sainz Jr., the Ferrari driver who has been making waves in Formula 1, has recently split up with his long-time partner, Isabel Hernaez. The couple had been together for seven years and had always kept their love life private and discreet. But what led to their sudden breakup and how are they coping with it? Let’s find out.
The rumor mill started spinning when Hernaez did not accompany Carlos to the Monaco GP, where he usually had her by his side. Fans also noticed that the duo had not interacted on social media for weeks and that Carlos had not visited his home in Spain for a long time. But the most shocking clue came when Carlos was asked what he liked to do in his free time during the Spanish GP. He mentioned his family, his dog, and his girlfriend, but added: “If I have one.”

Although neither of them has confirmed or denied the breakup, they have both spoken about it in different contexts and with different tones. Hernaez made her first public appearance after the split at the ‘Elle Eco Awards’ event in Madrid, where she confessed how she was feeling: “I’m putting up with the downpour. I’ve never talked about this and I’m not going to do it now. I want to thank you for the affection with which you treat me.”
She also revealed that she was getting support from her family and friends and that she was focusing on the positive aspects of the relationship. She even had some kind words for Carlos’s sister Blanca, who was getting married soon: “She is my friend and she deserves all the limelight this week.”

One of the last public appearances of the ex-couple was in February, at the wedding of Ana, Carlos’s other sister. The media asked Carlos when he would dare to go down the aisle and he replied: “Little by little.” It seems that their plans have changed drastically since then.
