Carlos sainz This Sunday he achieved the first pole position in F1 of his sports career, in the tenth race of this course, in an insane classification due to the rain in which the Spaniard prevailed in the last lap at the horn. Madrilenian gave a surprise before a Verstappen who dominated the dry and the wet, and was even surprised to see this Sunday he would start from first place, because as the Spaniard himself admitted, he just tried to put a good lap on the time table but he didn’t think it was worth doing the that pole because he had run out of battery straight. His surprise was overwhelming, but he only thought about achieving the great goal of a lifetime: his first success in F1. In that sense, Carlos he is optimistic. Starting at first, on a circuit where it’s hard to overtake and where he already considers her ferrari he can have great racing speed, the Spaniard thinks he can do it.
“It was a good lap, but I had a lot of problems with the water on the track and at the intermission that you were on that line (dry) and it was very easy for the car to tail off. It was also hard to get the temperature in the intermission. Eventually it did. I did a lap that I didn’t think was special. I was only thinking about putting a lap on the bench and in the end it was the pole lap, which caught me by surprise “, said Carlos after getting out of his car.
“Booah! It was a very difficult session. The track was super complicated and you always thought you were the one suffering the most. And then others see that they must be suffering the same or more than me on tires with that amount of water on the track, ”he said later on‘ DAZN F1 ’.
“Honestly, it’s very complicated even if the car is on the track without spinning and doing nothing, but then the lap is clean, there aren’t a lot of mistakes that are always made here. But I’m missing a lot of batteries in the back straight. I ran out of battery and I lost two or three tenths straight, I think, and I thought it wouldn’t be enough. But the return must be very good for it to be worth it ”he declared.
“If I win? I think. The speed was there all weekend except for Free Practice 3. We think we corrected those mistakes for qualification. If we have the rhythm of Free Training 2 we are in a good position to defend ourselves. I’m sure Max (Verstappen) and Charles (Leclerc) will put pressure on me but I’ll try my best ”, commented the Spaniard.
“Tomorrow we will go back to dry. Here there is always the danger that there will come a shower that will wet the whole track. But in the dry, if I join Free Practice 2, we have great options. If I’m going to like Free 3, I have to suffer. We changed a lot to try to regain the ‘feeling’ of Free Practice 2, so hopefully it will be similar to Free Practice 2 ”, he added in‘ DAZN F1 ’, which featured how important this track is to his career, where he did a 2013 test with Red Bull which was very important for him to get into F1. “Now it’s time to smile. It’s a beautiful joy to be on that pole in very complex conditions, conditions that I’ve always liked, that have always been well throughout my career, so what better place than Silverstone to achieve the first pillar “.
Verstappen: “It’s not just the beginning”
“It’s a difficult classification. In the rain, then it dries, it rains again … you have to be on track at the right time”, Verstappen highlighted, as Silverstone’s public applauded for his fight with Hamilton from 2021
“Q3 is pretty lottery and you have to do the fastest lap. On my last lap I got a yellow flag unfortunately, but it’s good to be in the front row and we have a good car for racing both on dry. And in the cold. ” in the wet ”, pointed out Max, who at the decisive moment was affected by the yellow flag.
When asked if he would be aggressive on the first lap, Max pointed out other factors: “It’s not just about the first lap. It’s about racing. We have a good car for racing and we also need to manage the wheels. I like”.
“I was disappointed, but I’m so happy for Carlos (Sainz) because he did so well today,” Charles Leclerc exclaimed.
“On that last lap I had to do everything right and I didn’t. So I didn’t deserve that post. Third place was a good position to start tomorrow and hopefully I can get back,” said Monegasque, who start third from the that he considers that the comeback can work. “I think the rhythm is there. If the race is clean everything should go well. We have to start well, tire management will be key and the strategy is between one and two stop, so It will be interesting to see who goes to one and who to two. We hope to get the choice right and come back “.
“Damage hasn’t been a problem in recent races but we can’t show it for other reasons,” he added, pointing to the strengths of his Ferrari against Red Bull.
