Carlos Sainz has set a goal of winning the Formula 1 Constructors’ Championship in Abu Dhabi with Ferrari in what would be “the perfect goodbye.”
Ferrari is currently 21 points behind McLaren in the Constructors’ standings before the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which will be Carlos Sainz’s final race with the team. Sainz has confirmed that he will be replaced by Lewis Hamilton next year and will join Williams in 2025 after an exceptional season at Ferrari. Winning the Constructors’ Championship would hold significant personal importance to Sainz as he bids farewell to the team he’s been dedicated to for the past four years. However, he acknowledges the challenge of closing the points gap in a single weekend against strong competitors like McLaren, Mercedes, and Red Bull. Sainz anticipates a fierce competition at the Yas Marina Circuit with all four teams being very evenly matched, making it difficult to predict the outcome before each race.
