The Formula 1 stars joined several of their fellow drivers at a track run to honor late racing legends Ayrton Senna (from Brazil) and Roland Ratzenberger (from Austria).
The run was organized by former Aston Martin driver Sebastian Vettel, who can be seen next to Nico on the far left of the main photo above.

The track run was to honor the aforementioned drivers, who died in separate car accidents at the track during the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix race weekend.
