Collapint’s message after the death of Pope Francis

Franco Colapinto spoke on his social networks after the death of Pope Francis at 88. The Argentine pilot lamented the departure of his compatriot Jorge Bergoglio.

Colapinto published in his account of Instagram A story in which Francisco can be seen greeting the faithful, with a flag of Argentina in the background.

“A leader who inspired us to be better people with his humility and his way of being. He reminded us that we all have God close,” Alpine’s man wrote.

And he closed: “Thank you for helping us find strength and inspiration.”

Francisco, Argentine and fan of San Lorenzo de Almagrohis papacy had begun in March 2013, after the resignation of Benedict XVI.

Pope Francis’s link with motor sport

Jorge Bergoglio began his way as Pope in the Vatican on March 13, 2013 and had varied interventions in the world of sport, especially in football.

Also, the Argentine was linked to motor sport. On one occasion he blessed a Formula E car and had an audience with Antonio Giovinazzi (Expileoto de F1 and today at the Wec).

Francisco received a sculpture and a tricampeón helmet Ayrton Senna.
