King Felipe was joined by Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía for a speedy royal outing on Sunday for the Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix. Fresh from travelling to Oslo for the state funeral of King Harald, Felipe returned to Spain in time for one of the country's biggest sporting occasions and brought his two daughters along for the ride.

The King, Leonor and Sofía watched the action from the paddock, where they also met two of Spain's most celebrated racing stars, Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz. Queen Letizia was not present, leaving Felipe and his daughters to take centre stage during the high-profile sporting event.

The outing also came at an important moment for the young royals, with both preparing to return to their university routines. For Leonor, who is studying Political Science at Carlos III University of Madrid, the Grand Prix was a stylish appearance before the next stage of her academic year.

The Royal Household confirmed ahead of the event that Felipe would attend the race with Leonor and Sofía. The royal family's presence added immense excitement to the Spanish Grand Prix, drawing enthusiastic cheers from spectators and racing fans alike across the venue.
