Carlos Sainz he already knows F1 Las Vegas GP This should be the best chance of the three remaining races of F1 World Cup to achieve one last Ferrari victory before leaving WilliamsHowever, for this Ferrari will have to make progress this Saturday. In very atypical conditions, with very cold asphalt (between 11 and 13 degrees), the McLaren of Mercedes and Lando Norris started stronger than the red cars.
Sainz is Ferrari’s best driver in fourth position at 0.280, with his teammate Leclerc in 5th place at 0.488, and with the car out, the Spaniard hopes to find more performance to aim to fight at the top against the chrono.
“I think we’re in a fight,” he said into the F1 microphones. “I would say Mercedes had a very strong day. Lando, with his McLaren, too. We may not have performed as well as everyone thought, so we will do something tonight to find a lap time, especially for the classification , because for racing it seems good.
“Complicated Thursday (Friday in Spain) here in Las Vegas because of the difficult track with very little grip which left us with a strange feeling inside the car. “We tried something different in Free Practice 2, but we’re still not satisfied with where we are and we have to keep working.”he argued in a statement on his social networks.
“I am confident that tonight’s test will help us find our biggest areas of improvement so that we can get qualifying in better shape. The pace of the race has not been bad, but there is still a lot to do. “added Carlos, making it clear that the priority should be to find more rhythm in a turn.
In that sense, Ferrari is already concerned about low track temperatures ahead of this GP. The red car struggles to warm up the tires to attack a turn in time trials, more than in the race. And that was accentuated in Las Vegas by the cold. They will have to fight that element on a track that, on the other hand, due to its characteristics, should suit their car.
