Sainz: “Back to reality”

Date:

“It’s a bit of a return to reality after two fantastic weekends”He said Carlos Sainz before the microphone of ‘DAZN F1’ after being 6th this Saturday in the held classification monza.

The Madrid native is coming off pole positions at Monza and Singapore and from his massive victory at Marina Bay. For Ferrari, those two routes are the closest thing to an oasis in the middle of the desert. Ferrari have made strides forward in recent races, but at Monza and Singapore they may be more competitive than usual. On a track full of fast corners, the red car returned to the old trend, with the McLaren in front of it. Leclerc was 4thmore comfortable than previous weekends, and Sainz, 6th, without finding the key with the appropriate settings after many experiments with Free Practice. And the podium for Italians is very complicated.

“We’re in a little bit of a place where we are before Monza, there in the fight with Mercedes and McLaren who are a bit ahead. It’s a complicated weekend, trying to find things, making mistakes, going back, and from playing too much in the end I couldn’t find the best set up for Suzuka and moreover the qualifying lap didn’t turn out to be anything here. even the world I am sixth. More or less where the car is. Between the fourth and sixth now, there is nothing else. The McLarens seem to be a step ahead”commented the Spaniard on ‘DAZN F1’.

“Obviously the McLarens on high-load circuits with a lot of fast corners are faster than us. In sector 1, both Red Bull and McLaren are ahead. We have to see tomorrow about race pace.”said the man from Madrid, who starts just behind Pérez (5th), with the superior Red Bull, and it will be difficult to handle Mercedes, who always have a better race pace every Sunday. Hamilton starts 7th and Russell, 8th. The fight between Carlos and his teammate Leclerc should be against them instead of looking at the podium.

“We are all equal, but Yes, I hope that it will be a race to try to hold on more or less to the position where we started, because the McLarens are a bit faster, ‘Checo’ (Pérez, with another Red Bull) is clearly more fast in the race and then it will be a difficult race with Mercedes”Sainz concluded.
