Smoother Sundays are top of Carlos Sainz F1 Christmas list for the 2023 season...
On the face of it, 2022 was a successful year for the Spaniard. He won his first race and secured more podiums in a single season then he had in the rest of his career but dig a little deeper and it shows the campaign was bittersweet one for the 28-year-old.
In Melbourne, he spun on turn nine of the second lap to beach himself in the gravel while in the next race at Imola, he collided with Daniel Ricciardo in the first lap. “We had a recurring thing, so we didn’t make good starts. In that fight [with Lewis Hamilton in Abu Dhabi] I lost five or six seconds [due to a poor start].”
“We simply didn’t develop well,” the Spaniard said. “Rome wasn’t built in a day, though. You also have to look at where we came from. If you look at the progress over the past two years, it’s great to see.”New Ferrari leadership must eliminate embarrassing strategy mistakesfollowing Mattia Binotto’s resignationTo the credit of the Ferrari mechanics and engineers, they built an excellent car for 2022 but the blame must go to the strategists for the way the season panned out.
