Zero distractions Carlos Sainz had tough luck when the season started, having retired from two of the initial four races. The remaining two races, however, were brilliant for him, despite constantly falling short of Charles Leclerc's pace during almost every session. He stated that even though he has felt fast in every car he has driven, the F1-75 has not been so easy for him. According to him, this was the first time in his career that he didn't find himself 'natural' with a race car. Sainz said: "I always feel like I am quick in any kind of car, and for the first time in my career I found myself with a very competitive car but one I didn't feel comfortable and natural with."
Today we did everything to get the best result possible but the pace was not there and P5 was the maximum. Despite the result, I had a good race and the feeling inside the car was positive. We’ll try to build on that for the last two races. Carlos Sainz has made impressive progress throughout the season. He closely chased in his Red Bull RB18 during the Canadian GP but failed to make an overtake. He carried the momentum into the British GP and managed to win the race, making it his first-ever victory in F1. During the celebration, he stated that winning his first race with Ferrari meant a lot to him. With just two races left in the season, he still has the challenge of taking on and George Russell, who are right ahead of him in the championship standings.
