Being effectively taken out by his old Ferrari team-mate at Silverstone was unfortunately indicative of how Carlos Sainz’s first season at Williams is constantly being undermined
An incident in the final stint of the British Grand Prix ruined Carlos Sainz’s race and left the beleaguered Williams driver absolutely exasperated. Sainz was attacking Leclerc for eighth place, but Leclerc lost control, crashed into Sainz, and both drivers went back in the standings. Sainz’s first season at Williams is being constantly undermined by various issues, with only one point scored in the last four races. Sainz felt that the P12 finish was like a retirement, as he was on track for a top-seven result before the incident with Leclerc. Despite the challenges, Sainz remains hopeful for a turnaround in his luck and performance as he navigates a tough Formula 1 season.
