Carlos examines the positives and negatives
Sainz, a little disappointed with the result, makes a lucid examination of his race: “Tough race. I never found rhythm in the wet and was unable to challenge the first two. I was struggling with the rear of the car. In the end under these conditions if you lack confidence you have to settle. I settled for third place. The positive is that I didn't make any mistakes and brought the tires to the finish line. I got back fast towards the end of the race when the confidence increased too. Nice result for the team and for the constructors' championship. Too bad we didn't win. Crazy how long it takes to dry the track. The dry line never appears, we continue to slip a lot. But it's definitely something to keep in mind for the future. This track is unique".
