Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz had an overwhelmingly negative reaction to his team’s performance in the Sao Paulo Grand Prix weekend, as
Carlos Sainz had a challenging weekend at the Brazilian Grand Prix, with his pace not fully translating into qualifying due to adverse weather conditions. He finished eighth in qualifying, ninth in the Sprint Shootout, and eighth in the Sprint race. In the Grand Prix, Sainz struggled with a poor start and a troublesome clutch. He finished in sixth place but expressed disappointment as the clutch issue had been troubling him throughout the weekend. Sainz hoped it was a one-off problem and not a long-term issue. Charles Leclerc’s hydraulic failure on the formation lap also affected Ferrari’s overall chances, and Sainz believed they missed an opportunity to score points against Mercedes. Max Verstappen won the race, with McLaren and Aston Martin also performing well. Sainz couldn’t make significant progress due to their car’s lack of pace and technical issues with downshifts. The Sao Paulo GP marked the end of a triple-header, and Sainz now has time to investigate and address the issues before the next race in Las Vegas in 2023.
