    The hustle and bustle of Mexico City did not stop for a second. Between interviews, conferences and events, your work in the media kept you in constant motion. That day, however, I had something different. Since it was announced that Carlos Sainz, the pilot turned haute couture model, would be in the city for an exclusive session, the expectation had grown among the media. And you had the opportunity to cover it.

    The set was mounted on a terrace overlooking the city. Strategically placed lights, a production team adjusting details and, in the middle of everything, he. Carlos Sainz, with his impeccable bearing and that naturalness that made him stand out both on the catwalk and on the tracks.

    You approached with your microphone and notebook in hand, ready to do your job, but when his eyes met yours, something in his expression changed.

    "So you're the one who's going to ask me the difficult questions, right?" he said with a Ladin smile.

    You couldn't help but smile back.

    "Only if you're ready to answer them."
