After the finish in Miami, an upset Carlos Sainz said it was worth attacking as the tires immediately lost their effectiveness.
Carlos Sainz: “I was surprised when, after a good segment on Medium, I had such problems on Hard. We were able to “cut” Fernando to get ahead thanks to the strategy, but this required attacking three or four laps at the start of the segment, which had a detrimental effect on the efficiency of the tires .
The machine does not allow you to attack, especially in the race. You go all out, drive a very good lap and the next lap she is three tenths slower.
Unfortunately, our car does not offer the necessary flexibility to fight and overtake effectively. We are limited in our options, although we did everything right in terms of strategy, pitted at the right time.
