In an emotional third episode of the 2023 edition of the Grand Prix, host Ramón García emphasized the long tradition of gender parity in the show’s tests. Recalling the almost 30-year history of the program, García highlighted that an equitable proportion of participants of both sexes has always been maintained in the teams. Tonight, the towns of Cerveró and Aguilar del Campoo took center stage, highlighting a moving story from the Catalan people.
The story of Nancy and Shenia, mother and daughter respectively, became the center of attention when they participated together in the challenging “Scale as you can” test. Shenia, only 20 years old, was just a 2-year-old girl when the Grand Prix broadcast her last program. Ramón García did not miss the opportunity to delve into Nancy’s memories, who shared how the program had been a valuable moment of family bonding in her past, and how now the tradition is kept alive by enjoying the event with her own daughter.
With palpable emotion, Ramón García added, “How beautiful! 18 years later, not only does he see it, but he comes to participate with his daughter.” The intergenerational connection and the continuity of the Grand Prix tradition became apparent in this emotional moment, a living testament to how the program has touched multiple generations.
The popular youtuber Cristinini also shared her enthusiasm, describing the experience of competing with her mother as a real “flat shot”.
As the night wore on, social media was filled with applause for the mother-daughter experience, though comments also surfaced regarding Nancy’s participation in the Scale as You Can test. The mother turned out to be the only one capable of overcoming the challenge and the audience applauded her performance.
