Sainz ‘felt under control’ during Singapore GP victory run
Carlos Sainz won the race at the Marina Bay Circuit, becoming the first non-Red Bull driver to win in 2023. He faced intense pressure from Lando Norris and the Mercedes drivers but managed to hold on. The victory was a huge achievement for Ferrari, as it was their first win since July last year. Ferrari controlled the pace from the beginning, with Charles Leclerc’s gamble on the Soft tyre paying off initially. However, a Safety Car period caused Leclerc to drop back, leaving Sainz to defend against the Mercedes drivers. Sainz felt composed and in control throughout the race and was ecstatic with the win.
