In the closing seconds of qualifying for the Monaco Grand Prix, Carlos Sainz crashed into Sergio Perez, who was flipped into corner eight. Despite this incident, the Ferrari driver had enough time earlier to take second place at the start of Sunday’s race.
Carlos Sainz: “I was on a fast lap and at that moment in front of me Perez’s car crashed. I saw the yellow flags come out for turn eight and immediately hit the brakes trying to avoid colliding with him. I tried my best, but…
It’s a shame that for the second year in a row red flags in the qualifying final prevent me from fighting for pole position. I think today was the chance to fight for first place at the start. I have a very fast pace all day and I had hopes for qualifying. Of course nothing is certain, but today I felt comfortable in the car.
Tomorrow we have to finish the job. We are in a good position to bring a great result for the team. The car will be fast all weekend and we will do our best.”
