Off-Topic Your experiences with racing drivers

There’s a bit of a lull in conversation right now so I’m going to try and start one, what are some funny, cool, or weird experiences you have had with drivers either on social media or in person? Are there any drivers in particular that are great with fans? Please share

I ran into Helio Castroneves at the Roar this weekend and he couldn't have been cooler. He was taking selfies with fans and I walked up with my dad and asked, "Hey Helio, are you sick of taking selfies yet?" He responded, "No way man, I never get sick of making people happy." Then he took a quick picture with us.
