Sainz, last months in Ferrari
For Carlos Sainz the remaining races of 2024 represent a countdown at the end of which he will have to pack his bags from Ferrari to join Williams. The Spaniard last September 1 also had the opportunity to say goodbye to the Monza crowd, who a year ago he had sent into ecstasy with the pole position, while in the last GP he made himself appreciated for having hindered (for how little he could resist) the inexorable advance of the McLarens in pursuit of Charles Leclerc.
Sainz deserves recognition for one top-notch professionalism which was seen not only at Monza but throughout his four-year tenure at Ferrari. And despite several disagreements with Leclerc, which certainly didn’t help his relationship with the fans, Smooth Operator he is highly appreciated inside the box and by his team principal Frederic The vesselwho has always admitted that the decision to replace him with Lewis Hamilton was not an easy one.
Vasseur’s words
“I have enormous respect for Carlos for what he has done for the team in recent years, but especially in the two years with me. I would definitely love to work with him in the future.I am more than happy to have him in the team and I will maintain a great relationship with him“, these are the words of Vasseur. “I know perfectly well what he did last year. Especially when we had problems he was able to push the team with the pole in Monza and the victory in Singapore. This probably also pushed Charles to react.“.
“He’s doing a great job this season too. I know perfectly well that the situation wasn’t at the beginning of the season, but he’s a great professional. We discussed last winter and decided together to push until the last corner of the last lap of the last race, and he’s doing very well.”.
