This year will contain many 'firsts' for Williams rookie Nicholas Latifi, and number one on the list was choosing a race number. And the Canadian has chosen to pay homage to his hometown in his choice of digits...

The 24-year-old has chosen number six as his race number because Toronto is also known as 'the six' – a term popularised, but not coined, by musician Drake. He previously ran #40 during FP1 for Williams in 2019.

In the video posted on Twitter, Latifi explains where the nickname for Toronto originates.
