Carlos Sainz is optimistic about next season. The Ferrari driver believes his team is capable of imposing a fight for the Red Bull Racing title in 2023 if its weaknesses can be ironed out over the winter.
“I feel we have a chance,” Racingnews365 quoted Carlos as saying. – Red Bull Racing dominated, but they didn’t have a clear speed advantage in qualifying and in the race. That’s why I don’t think we’re far behind in terms of pure machine speed.
Remember, I took pole in Austin and my teammate qualified second. This result suggests that our car is not that far behind Red Bull. We need to understand the properties of the 2023 tires to increase the pace of the race, because in the long run Red Bull was faster than us. Next year we want to take a step forward in strategy, in working with tyres, in approach to racing – the team is working on it.
As I said, in terms of sheer speed, we’re not that far behind. The car needs to add some downforce and increase the power and then we will reach the level of Red Bull or even get faster. We hope we succeed.”
