But unlike the Italian tennis player, the Belarusian did something amazing. She joined the Alpine pit crew and dressed like them by wearing their pink suit and helmet and showed some dance moves for a song. The Alpine Pit crew also joined her and made dance moves.

She enjoyed her time with the Alpine team and gave a kiss to the cameras, showing her support to the French team for today's important race. The Haas F1 team and the Alpine F1 are battling for sixth place in the constructor's championship. 

As per the championship standings, the Ferrari-backed American team is seventh with 54 points, while the Renault-backed team is ahead in sixth place with 59 points. The difference between the two teams is just 5 points, and the winner will be decided on the Yas Marina circuit.

Alpine driver Pierre Gasly has an advantage over Haas, as their driver Nico Hulkenberg was given a three-place grid penalty for breaking the safety regulations during his qualifying. The German driver will start in seventh place, and the French driver will start fifth.

Haas’s other driver, Kevin Magnussen, will start 14th, and Alpine's new driver, Jack Doohan, on the 17th. The opening lap of the race will be very crucial for both teams, as it is the biggest chance to take advantage. So just like the constructors championship between McLaren and Ferrari, the battle for 6th place will also be a thrilling one to watch.
