Carlos Sainz was 5th in the qualifying session of the Monaco F1 GP, although he will start 4th due to the sanction received by Leclerc by three positions, relegating the Monegasque to 6th place. Therefore, after the end of the session, he expressed his dissatisfaction with the final result. The Spaniard was among the candidates for pole position in the Principality, but was unable to make one last good attempt in a final lap where he complained about having three cars on the track. The Spaniard achieved the second best time, beating Leclerc, in his first attempt at Q3, but was unable to keep up with the fight on that final lap, where he finished 0″265 behind the best time set by poleman Verstappen.
“After the first run I was in a good position, but unfortunately in the second we started too early and I saw three cars in my swift lap. I lost a few tenths in the first sector and that probably cost me to be in the Top-3 now. Verstappen in turn 4, Tsunoda in turn 6-7-8, and then Lando (Norris) in the penultimate corner… In Monaco to do a clean lap passing three cars is difficult. We have to study it and at least Q3 is going well”, commented number 55 in the statements on ‘DAZN F1’.
“Tomorrow is another day for sure, but today I think we missed a great opportunity to get into the top 3 tomorrow. But that’s what there is. It was my turn to find those cars and we will have to see how we can come back tomorrow”, added the man from Madrid, who was disappointed because he was not included in the Top-3, knowing how difficult it is to achieve the podium. in a track where he is very difficult to pass
