Carlos Sainz has shown his face after the Brazilian Grand Prix of Formula 1in which could not finish the test due to an accidentwhich came during his comeback from the pit lane, precisely because he had another blow during qualifying. The Madrid native has apologized to Ferrari for his departure from the track in the middle of the fight for the Constructors’ World Championship.
In the mixed zone at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, Sainz was asked if this was something inherent to the car or an incorrect set-up. “Probably a combination of the two. The fact that this year the car is so kind to the tires in the rain will surely penalize us.. On the other hand, I think that surely in that ‘tap’ things could have been done better in the wet,” said the Madrid driver.
“In general, This year there has not been any wet session where we have been really fastso it’s something we’ll have to look at. The last three races should be dry, so it is not something that should worry us,” predicted Sainz after not having finished the long race on this rainy day in Interlagos.
“It has been a bad day, a bad Sunday, from the ‘qualy’ to the race. Leaving from the pit lane It’s not like we were making much progress, very difficult to overtake, very little visibility behind us. Yeah, two mistakes which is not ideal and I sure feel sorry for the whole team“said the still pilot of Ferrari.
“At the same time, today really wet and Throughout the year the car has been very difficult to drive in the wet and we need to understand why.because it has cost us a couple of races,” Sainz repeated, then congratulated himself on having the engine available for the next three races of the World Championship.
“That’s positive and we’ve done it for that reason. I knew that obviously I would have preferred to start thirteenth today with all the spray there was, knowing that I could sneak into the points. We have decided to sacrifice starting thirteenth, by starting from the pit lane, to try to benefit from that engine at the end of the last three races. I hope you pay; If not, we’ll see,” he added.
“I think that It is clear that in Las Vegas we should have options, but then the last two are more McLaren tracks. And here it has been seen that McLaren In the dry it is the fastest car, so you also have to go with enthusiasm, but being realistic,” Sainz concluded cautiously.
