Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz believes his team has a good chance of getting ahead of Red Bull Racing in Singapore. According to the Spaniard, this requires you to qualify above your rivals, and the pace of the F1-75 car allows you to do this.
Carlos Sainz: “I don’t think you need to know a secret to a successful performance in Singapore. As we saw in 2017, the weather can play a big part in determining the outcome of the race and the forecast for this weekend promises another rain. There are many bumps on the track and the race is one of the toughest of the season from a physical and psychological point of view. Let’s see how the weekend goes on the new generation machines.
In the last races Red Bull was fast, but I hope we can compete with them this weekend, especially in qualifying. In Singapore, one of those circuits where you have a good chance of succeeding if you start ahead of your main rivals. Hopefully we can get ahead of Red Bull in qualifying and then we’ll see what we can do in the race.
Are we worried about the pace of Mercedes? We are concerned about the pace of any team that can win, including Mercedes. To stay ahead of them, we have to qualify with two cars in the top four each time.
In Monza we had a high race pace, so our goal should still be to stay ahead of Red Bull. If we can do this, it will be a decisive factor in the fight for the championship.”
