Last year, Carlos Sainz finished third and secured another podium in Monaco. However, the Spaniard regrets not being able to win a race that was within reach.<\/p>\n
\u00ab We did everything we could, especially staying patient in the rain. We made a good decision by switching to slick tires. I lost the race because of a slower car that caused traffic. It’s frustrating because I could have won the race, but that’s how sports are sometimes. (F) explains the Ferrari driver.<\/p>\n
Sainz was the first driver to want to switch to slick tires when the racing line started to dry. A decision he is proud of.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I saw the track drying up, so we decided to switch to slick tires, which was a good decision since I was leading afterward. But the out lap is never easy on hard tires, and I was behind a backmarker, which cost me the win today. But I don’t want to complain too much, Checo [Perez] had no luck in Jeddah, so it’s like that, everything balances out sooner or later. \u00bb regrets the former McLaren driver.<\/p>\n
