Scary: Sainz stayed in the middle of the track and no one saw him

Carlos Sainz had an accident on the first lap of Japanese F1 GP 2022 this Sunday, there was heavy rain and wet asphalt. All the drivers decided to start with intermediate tires, but the conditions worsened and it was very easy for someone to hydroplan, something that finally happened to Sainz. The Spaniard saw how his car bounced off the wall and returned to the asphalt, staying in the middle of the track. There, the Spaniard lived a very difficult moment, because he saw how cars passed by him very quickly, because because of the rain, they did not see him due to poor visibility on the asphalt.

“The truth is that we all decided to start with the intermission and then when the start was given that the conditions were extreme, there was a lot of aquaplaning, almost no visibility. And in one of them I tried to get out of the wake of ‘Czech’ (Perez) to see something and I found myself in a puddle and I did aquaplaning and I lost the car”, he pointed out Carlos Sainz before the microphones of ‘DAZN F1’, highlighting the difficult moment he had to live later from inside the passenger compartment. “The worst comes later, when you’re in the middle of the track and you know no one else can see you. The conditions are a bit on the limit, I don’t know what they’re going to do because the track conditions and the visibility aren’t practical” .

“If the pilots don’t see anything, you’re telling fate to do whatever it takes on a day like today because the 18 pilots that came behind me didn’t even seem to see me standing in the middle of the line. clue and it was sheer luck that they didn’t hit me. So think… things are a bit on edge and I hope they make the right decision.”he said when asked if the race should continue in these delicate conditions.
