According to Kaieteur News, Mohamed Shiraz Roshandin, the President of the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC), met with Bernie Ecclestone, the Honorary Chairman Emeritus of Formula 1, and his wife Fabiana in Brazil on November 9, 2026.

Roshandin had the chance to have dinner with Ecclestone and his wife, Fabiana, during which he learned about marketing strategies native to the region. Roshandin stated that the meeting allowed them to exchange ideas concerning the advancement of motorsport.

Kaieteur News noted that although Ecclestone holds no executive or voting authority in his capacity as Chairman Emeritus, the former Formula 1 chief, now a business mogul, rebuilt the multi-billion-dollar enterprise before selling it to Liberty Media in 2017, and maintains significant influence as an unofficial mentor to the sport's management. Furthermore, Roshandin utilized the dinner in Sao Paulo to gain insight from Ecclestone's extensive network of motorsport entrepreneurs and his considerable expertise in creating motorsport brands and products. Roshandin also took the opportunity to learn from Fabiana, who serves as the Brazilian marketing director and former vice-president of marketing for the Brazilian Grand Prix.
