There is neither number 1 nor number 2 at Ferrari, but undoubtedly Carlos Sainz, this season, has the merit of leading to the legendary Italian team in the World Cup. The Madrilenian, so far in the championship, is ahead of the Monegasque in the championship and was also the only one capable of winning a race, apart from the two drivers of the Red Bull team.

Yes, he was the one who ended the dominance of energy drinks in Singapore. Who has left at 10 years the record for consecutive races won by Max Verstappen. This is why more and more people in the Sainz fan club. This is why he already has even Formula 1 world champions at his side.

This is the case of Jacques Villeneuve, who is not really short of compliments. Because the Canadian is “special”. It’s one of those who speaks clearly and who always says what he thinks, whether he likes it more or less.

“Sainz always improves his teams”

As for Sainz, the truth is that for the 1997 world champion there is no doubt.

“I like Sainz. I like what he does. He always improves the teams he works in and helps them as well,” he says of Carlos’ work.

The truth is that it is like that. At McLaren, he joined a broken team and it was with him that those from Woking got back on the podium. The same can be said of a Ferrari team that, the year before he landed, was a disaster.

“Part of the history of the Scuderia is that there are periods when it does well and then others in which they fail to win”said Villeneuve.

And the sentence: “At this moment, Ferrari “He’s not in the best position.”
