Sainz: “Everything that could go wrong did go wrong”

“Too bad. Everything that could go wrong did…”. that phrase of Carlos Sainz perfect summary of what happened this Sunday at Dutch F1 GPwherein Carlos Sainz He finished 8th despite starting 3rd. “Bad pace in the first stint, then a really bad stop that nearly cost us four positions or something. And then the yellow flag and the ‘unsafe release’ that wasn’t an unsafe release”the Spaniard directed at DAZN F1.

The truth is sainz He had to row everything against him, in a race full of traps that all fell upon him. You need to see if your car has been affected by a touch on hamilton at turn 1, but then comes the worst: a terrible Ferrari pit stop of 12″7 seconds, with more than 10 seconds lost. Then comes the second stop, with very bad luck for Carlos, because a lap later he left a virtual safety car and his rivals took advantage of it.With that stop, in addition, Carlos Sainz received a 5 second penalty.

The Spaniard braked as he left for the pit lane because he didn’t want to run over a mechanic McLaren. There, his car got stuck because the ‘anti draft’ jumped. Because of that Alonso found him in the middle and he had to brake. He did it for safety, but he was penalized for an unsafe start, something the man from Madrid did not understand.

“I had to stop to not hire a McLaren mechanic since I pulled the jack. It wasn’t an ‘unsafe release’, so I don’t really understand the decision. Everything that could go wrong went wrong” .

THE BAD STOP

“You have to study, because they called me to the pits too late, too late and they really weren’t ready. We have to study it calmly”.

EXPECTED FOR MONZA

“After today, I’m a bit… I’m not worried, but I didn’t like the way the race went. We have to find some things for Monza because obviously Mercedes and the Red Bulls are a bit faster at race pace”.
