The Scuderia missed big chances for wins in Azerbaijan and Singapore, but Carlos Sainz believes two of the tracks ahead this year suit it equally well. How the Spaniard commented on Mattia Binotto’s words that he would not sign Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari.
The tendency to suit specific Formula 1 cars to specific tracks is particularly strong this year – with the exception of McLaren, which performs equally well everywhere. This phenomenon is particularly pronounced in the Ferrari SF-24, which seems to “prefer” circuits with long straights and slow turns.
There are 6 GPs to go before the curtain falls on this year’s season, and when asked which of the even number of tracks suit the cavallino, Saint answered without hesitation “Mexico and Las Vegas are the races where I have the best chance of getting another win (with Ferrari)”.
The Mexican race follows three days after the US GP in Texas this Sunday (20/10). The Las Vegas GP is scheduled for November 23.
These 6 GPs will be Saint’s last with the Scuderia before he leaves in 2025 for Williams, and the 30-year-old said: “My mind is full of motivation for the adventure with her Williams, but I would love to win one more race before I say goodbye Ferrari.
Between another win with the Ferrari and my first with her Williams I would choose her ferrari, because I focus on the short term. But nothing would make me more excited than to win one GP with the Williams, because that would prove that I made the right decision” continued the Spaniard.
Sainz, who also had offers for 2025 from both Sauber/Audi and Alpine, added that “a victory with Williams it would probably be the high point of my career.”
Meanwhile, asked by Spanish newspaper Marca to comment on former Scuderia boss Mattia Binotto’s recent statement that he would not choose Lewis Hamilton for Ferrari, Saint said: “Did Binotto say he wouldn’t sign Lewis?
I don’t mess with that kind of stuff. I keep my opinion to myself, and I will tell you if we meet at dinner one night. He and Leclerc are two great drivers, and I’m sure they’ll have fun.”Carlos Sainz concluded.
