Sainz: No regrets after U-turn on failed Ferrari F1 car set-up gamble
Carlos Sainz, the Singapore winner, will start the Suzuka race from sixth place, two places behind his teammate Charles Leclerc. Sainz tried different set-up approaches to challenge himself and the car, but ultimately had to revert to a more conservative set-up due to the car’s lack of competitiveness. He admitted to being distracted by the changes and didn’t have enough time to get fully comfortable with them. Sainz acknowledged that Suzuka would be a tough track for Ferrari, with its high-speed characteristics and challenging corners. He believes that McLaren and Red Bull look faster this weekend, but still aims to have a good race. Although the set-up experiments didn’t help him this time, Sainz feels that he gained valuable knowledge for future races.
