Carlos Sainz is not happy with the comments made by Ferrari’s performance engineer, Jock Clear.
Carlos Sainz has refuted claims by Ferrari engineer Jock Clear regarding the impact of bouncing on F1 drivers due to aerodynamic porpoising in the 2022 ground-effect cars. Ferrari has been tackling this issue since a Spanish GP upgrade re-introduced it to their car. Clear believes modern drivers should adapt to it, drawing parallels to drivers from the 1990s. However, Sainz disagrees, stating that only those who have driven a ground-effect car can truly understand the challenge. He invites critics to experience the speed and physical demands of driving a 2022 F1 car before forming an opinion. Sainz’s response was prompted by Clear’s suggestion that bouncing is a manageable aspect that drivers should be able to cope with.
