Red Alliance
Next year he will no longer be a Ferrari driver and his future is currently uncertain, but for the moment Carlos Sainz remains more than ever a team man for the Cavallino team. At the end of qualifying for the Monaco GP, which the Spaniard finished in third place behind Oscar Piastri and above all his teammate in red Charles Leclerc – deservedly poleman in front of the friendly public – the first thought of the red #55 went precisely to the Monegasque.
Charles is the candidate for success
Leclerc is at his side third ‘home’ pole but between misfortunes and sensational strategic errors he never won in Monaco, nor did he ever get on the podium. A sort of curse that Sainz wants to help break. In fact, the Spaniard, speaking in the press conference at the end of qualifying, has already ‘made himself available’ to his garage partner: “I’m happy to see Charles on pole and the team with a chance to win tomorrow – said Sainz – we will do everything we can to allow Charles to win. He drove incredibly all weekend“.
A “saved” weekend
Words that will certainly please not only Leclerc but also team principal Fred Vasseur, called to ‘avenge’ the infamous 2022 harakiri that arrived under the management of Mattia Binotto two years later. “I lacked a bit of confidence – the Spaniard explained further, analyzing his Saturday – if elsewhere you pay for it with half a tenth, here it costs you 2-3 tenths. It’s something we’ll have to look at, but we saved the weekend with two good laps in Q3. The whole weekend was somewhat difficult for me, I didn’t have the usual confidence I have in Monaco”he concluded.
