After the Mexican Grand Prix, many will be wondering if Carlos Sainz will really be fired at the end of the season? Yes, he will be fired, Lewis Hamilton will come in his place, but Sainz is handling it all professionally and with his head held high.
And he makes it more beautiful with victories. Indeed, if he could, he would say goodbye to Scuderia Ferrari with a victory in the constructors' championship:
“It’s a very strange and challenging year for me. It started badly, we weren’t really competitive, development was difficult, then suddenly we managed to get where we wanted to be. Suddenly we were back to being contenders for the win, but these opportunities were taken by Charles Leclerc, while I really wanted to win. I didn’t want to leave Scuderia Ferrari without a win. At the beginning of the year, it would have been easy to lose my motivation, the desire to carry on with all this. But luckily at that point a three-week break came, during which I was able to recharge and come back determined. In the last five-six grands prix I was able to recover, I improved my driving, I have more confidence in the car, and I’m proud of how I handled the situation. Now I’m only focused on the goal of winning the constructors’ championship. It would be a perfect farewell from me!” - said the classic Spaniard.
