The “thorn in the nail” that Carlos Sainz wants to remove

The Spanish Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) this Thursday, on the eve of the Monaco Formula One Grand Prix, that “the only goal is to get pole position, which gives you more chances to win”.

“I still have a thorn from last year, because it was a race that I could have won perfectly, with a bit of luck,” said the man from Madrid, according to Marca.

“After a year, the only goal is to get pole position, which ultimately gives you more chances to win”, said Sainz.

In the opinion of Sainz: “It is true that what is important (in Monaco) is the speed in a lap, that our car is always better on Saturday than in the race and in the past it has always been very strong on this circuit.”

“But I still think that the Red Bulls are the big favourites, because they have no weak points and in this circuit they should be very fast, as they were last year,” he added.

Carlos’ statistics in Monaco show that it is one of his most favorable circuits: “This is the circuit where I have scored the most points together with Austin and Barcelona, ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ talisman circuit, so to speak, and that’s something I want to have in my palmares. A driver who scores a lot of points in Monaco is something very good for him and my intention is to continue adding”, he affirmed .

Sainz have revealed the notice that the FIA ​​gave them this Saturday to avoid the phenomenon of pole positions being decided by accidents in Q3 like the last two in Monaco. “This is a rule that the drivers tried to put on the table. When you have a front row in the first test, you always go to the second with less loss with the others. It is true that the FIA ​​told us in It’s true that this year they will look at it with a magnifying glass and if it turns out that it was half-deliberate they will check it, but how will they know if it was intentional or not?”, the man from Madrid asked.
