Carlos Sainz insists Williams can replicate McLaren's rise
Sainz knew at the start of this year that he would lose his Ferrari drive to Lewis Hamilton in 2025, and he became the key player in the F1 driver market for several months.
“When I left McLaren I said they might not be winning next year or the following year but this team with these people are going to be winning soon. “I gave myself the target to take the decision before the break and when I took the decision I wanted to be 100% convinced. Sainz has won a grand prix for Ferrari in each of the past three years, including early this season in Australia.He responded: “I’m being very honest with you, I’ve been 10 years in Formula 1 and eight years of them I haven’t fought for wins. Two or three, I have.“Formula 1 for me is a lot about extracting the maximum out of the car, the result is not purely dependent on the athlete and the driver, it’s depending on the machinery you drive.
Sainz will now be able to focus during F1 weekends on his on-track performances without the distraction of sorting out his future.
