Ferrari, Carlos Sainz looks over his shoulder
The words of Carlos Sainz
Carlos Sainz took stock of the situation after Friday at Suzuka: "Behind Max we are very close, us, Mercedes and McLaren. We are a bit back to the scenario before Singapore, with Verstappen and Red Bull strong. With the engineers we are working to refine my set-up and today we tried different settings to find the right balance on this circuit".
"There is a lot of data to analyze and tonight we will decide how to proceed, trying to find the correct window of’use of the compounds", finished Carlos.
