Carlos Sainz is having one of the most difficult seasons of his career and this is due to the fact that until mid-year he had no contract until 2025. According to the Spaniard, it was far from the most comfortable situation psychologically.
“What I went through this year didn’t put me in an ideal situation and it wasn’t conducive to performing at the highest level possible,” Carlos admitted in an interview with The Athletic, the New York Times sports supplement. “I think every Formula 1 driver wants certainty about his prospects so he doesn’t have to worry about the future.
In addition, I play for the Ferrari team, which already has the highest pressure and a very tense working environment. But despite all the difficulties, I am still proud of how I spent the first half of the season, and everything went more or less well. However, I believe that a driver can perform better during a lap if his mind is a bit calmer.
But I am happy to have driven for the Scuderia for the last four years. I have always said: once you become a Ferrari driver, you will be a Ferrari driver forever. No one can take this away from me, and I plan to have as much fun as possible until the end of the season…”
