Carlos Sainz He had a very difficult weekend in Baku and he had homework for the days before Miami GP this weekend: understanding what happened to Azerbaijan and the reason why he is not comfortable and has a confident pilot in him Ferrari SF23. And he achieved it. The Spaniard assured at the start of the appointment in America that he has “a clear idea” of what might have happened to him in Baku and He hopes to recover the sensations this weekend to return to the level shown in the appointment before Baku, in Australiawhere he was superior to his teammate Leclerc from start to finish.
“I have a good idea of what might have happened in Baku. Obviously, you’re never 100% sure, but that’s part of the sport. I don’t want to go into detail because I don’t think it’s worth it. But now I have a pretty clear idea,” he commented in statements published by the portal ‘Motorsport.com’.
“I was at the Miami Grand Prix, looking for sensations and back in Australia, which was the last weekend where I felt very good in the car”said the Madrid native, who last Sunday, finishing the Baku race with a 5th place finish, is confident that he will once again be as competitive as his teammate Leclerc at the North American event.
Carlos also pointed out the Ferrari SF23’s performance problems, making it clear that it’s not just about high tire wear. “I think a lot of times we’ve talked about tire wear ourselves and I think that was the wrong word on our part. It’s not just the tires, it’s the racing speed in general. When it comes to racing, you put the car on the track with 100kg and you have to push a lot of laps on the same tire.”
In this sense, Ferrari is preparing the arrival of important developments at the next Imola GP and before that it will test important innovations this weekend, with a new diffuser.
“It seems Red Bull’s rhythm is not above ours, but above everyone else’s. They are just on another level,” he added of the championship’s great dominators.
