Carlos Sainz has just three races remaining in Ferrari colours ahead of his switch to Williams next year.
In an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, 1978 F1 world champion Mario Andretti expressed his sympathy for Carlos Sainz as he prepares to leave the Ferrari team. Sainz was informed at the beginning of the year that he would be replaced by seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton. Andretti acknowledged the excitement of watching Hamilton race for Ferrari but also recognized the challenges faced by Sainz. Sainz, who has won four grands prix during his time with Ferrari, has not yet secured a top team for his future in Formula 1. Hamilton will become Charles Leclerc’s most accomplished teammate at Ferrari, with over 100 grand prix wins to his name. Andretti believes that Leclerc will benefit from partnering with Hamilton and that their collaboration will help Ferrari return to consistent front-running form in the upcoming season.
