Sainz, disappointed: "A double it brought me success"

Carlos Sainz is second to F1 Monaco GP 2022, but the man from Madrid was not happy to get out of his Ferrari, and that was only a sign of his hunger for successes. He wants to win. A good driver is never satisfied with the second position. And less of a career he has on his hands. This is the case of the Madrid man, who after his mistake in Barcelona he redeemed himself in the best possible way in Monaco, in very precarious conditions, with a clear radio broadcast that could be key. And in turn, saw how his teammate Leclerc suffered from Ferrari’s skepticism of his approach from the lead.

sainz make a difference in his good reading career. The team asked him to stop for the intermediate tires a lap later Leclercbut Carlos he straightened his wall, telling him it was better to wait, endure and suffer the tire rain to go straight to the soft rubber after a few laps, which saved himself from stopping.

The approach proposed by Sainz is perfect. This allowed him to fight for victory with Pérez, while Charles melted into third position. However, he didn’t complete that game with long -awaited victory due to his return to the track, with cold rubber, when he had to throw his maximum to get ahead. Perez when the Mexican stopped at the same turn. But that twist ruined his choices. ‘Czech‘wore dry rubber and exited the track with just a second ahead of Carlos, enough to defend his hegemonic position for the rest of the race.

“It has become an insane race. We have done everything we should have done. We were patient with wet tires before moving on to dry ones, but it brought me success to stay behind a lapped car. You can understand my frustration, because a clean lap will give me success, but sometimes this sport is like that. ”, Carlos pointed out, regretting not having achieved that victory that was resisting him. In 2021 he was left with honey on his lips because he could not fight for pole position because of a red flag, and on Sunday he was second. And this time, he returned close to glory.

“I knew in the middle of the first stint with the line and I realized I had to go straight to the dry tires. I think it was the right decision. We stopped, we put in hard and the first lap with hard tires wasn’t easy.It took me a few seconds to stay behind that lapped car, but… I won’t complain too much, because I know it was like that once in this sport.Checo had bad luck in Jeddah and now he is had a great career and he had some luck in my situation, and soon the opposite will happen ”, Carlos said about his team’s decision to correct his team’s strategy and about the Mexican’s success, which featured that he also struggled with the end of the wheel.

“But you can see how I also had a little bit of grain in the back, and that made it hard to approach and pass the tunnel entrance. A few times I was about to make my move, but it was a bit wet inside. Late braking Checo and if I hit the brakes I would wear it ”, Carlos concluded.

AYOS LAHAT

“Now we did everything well. The winger adventure until I put dry worked great. It gave me a chance to fight for victory. After the stop, when I had to start and win, I had of the problem in one lap, which was not removed in two sectors.I have done the whole first and second sectors behind a Williams that has not been removed which took me a few seconds which gave me success today.It is a real work. But these are the things that can happen in this sport “.

HE HAS A CLEAR STRATEGY

“I knew I was going to do the strategy right, it was clear to me that I would lead the race before going on dry tires, and lead it that way, finishing second was not enough. I just didn’t know what to say. If they interfered on your lap starting the way they paid me and you lose that second or two that brought me into position with Pérez, I can do nothing.Now I did it and we did everything perfect except for that detail that failed us “.
