Several prominent celebrities attended the final of the 2024 Champions League. One of them was Zhou Guanyu, a driver for Kick Sauber in the F1 season. Despite the two-week break in the F1 season, Guanyu was seen at the famous Wembley football stadium, showing his support for Real Madrid.
Real Madrid emerged victorious in the final, defeating Germany’s Borussia Dortmund 2-0. In the early stages of the game, Dortmund exerted immense pressure on Real Madrid, but the Spanish giants, including players like Carvajal and Kroos, managed to stand firm.
As the game progressed, Real Madrid took control, with Carvajal scoring the first goal from a Kroos cross. Shortly after, Vinicius sealed Real Madrid’s victory with another goal, securing the win by a margin of 2-0.
Interestingly, it was revealed that Zhou Guanyu is a fan of Real Madrid. His excitement and support for the team during the Madrid vs Dortmund game were evident in a video he shared, where he even exclaimed “let’s go”.
While Guanyu enjoyed the Champions League final, he has a significant task ahead in terms of securing his future in F1. Both Guanyu and his teammate, a 10-time Grand Prix winner, have contracts expiring at the end of this year. Speculations are rife about their next steps, with Williams and Haas being considered as possible destinations for Guanyu.
The Chinese driver is eager to resolve his contractual situation as soon as possible. A clearer picture of his future is expected to emerge by the halfway point of the current F1 season.
