Daniil Medvedev is a big Formula 1 fan, and he used his early Roland Garros exit to attend one of the races.
Tennis and Formula 1 seem to get along really well recently. F1 drivers George Russell and Nyck De Vries attended the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters, which is an Atp 1000 event played in Monte-Carlo, Monaco, only a few weeks ago.
But also current and former tennis players have attended F1 races over the past few weeks. Roger Federer was spotted in Paddock during the 2023 Miami Grand Prix, and the Swiss Maestro soon reunited with Juan Martin Del Potro, but also with the Williams sisters, who all attended the race too.
Last week, the Formula 1 world moved to Monaco, where another former player, Maria Sharapova, appeared, this time presenting the winner of qualifying, Max Verstappen, with a pole position award.

Baku (Azerbaijan), April 29 (Ians) Red Bull Racing driver Sergio Perez claimed the first Sprint race victory of the season at the Baku City Circuit on Saturday, beating Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen to the chequered flag for the maximum eight points on offer in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix 2023.
With F1’s Sprint format being revised for 2023, a new ‘Shootout’ qualifying session set the grid for the 17-lap dash, which took place in pleasant weather conditions and featured action from start to finish.
One driver who did not take part was F1 rookie Logan Sargeant, who crashed out of the Shootout and was withdrawn from the 100-kilometre Sprint due to the significant damage his Williams car sustained in the incident.
Meanwhile, the grid missed another driver after Alpine made suspension changes on Esteban Ocon’s car under parc ferme conditions, with the team enduring a particularly challenging weekend on the shores of the Caspian Sea.

The Gilded Age Season 1 is coming to DVD, and with it comes behind-the-scenes bonus features about the costumes of the glitzy period drama. TV Insider has an exclusive clip from the upcoming box set, The Gilded Age the Complete First Season, available Tuesday, July 26 from Warner Bros Home Entertainment, and in it, viewers learn about how Agnes Van Rhijn approaches fashion compared to her neighborly nemesis, Bertha Russell. Played by Christine Baranski and Carrie Coon, Agnes and Bertha represent the old and new money of 1800s New York. The stubborn, by-the-book Agnes only fraternizes with the old wealth of society, refusing more than most in her circle to let people like Bertha in. Bertha and her husband, George Russell (Morgan Spector), on the other hand, are so ridiculously wealthy, it seems the most close-minded of their social scene will have to make space for them as their family fortunes dwindle.
