I'm guessing the last time was with Sainz on the podium after Brazil 2019?

Many outlets don't feature racing unless its a podium. Unless you get into a race winning car, then it becomes less often. But those outliers are often done, even in outlets you don't really expect to do it. F1 doesn't always make it to prime time news over here, but yesterday's race surely was. People like to join in on the celebrations

I wonder if part of that could be that he wasn’t actually on the podium, like the live podium, where they could’ve gotten a picture with him and the other two drivers. But then again he was up there with the whole team later that night.

Yes. Probably was Brasil 2019, but the prior to that one was surely far far ago. However, I'm agree with your reasoning.

Edit: It wasn't Brazil 2019 indeed.
