The Frenchman still hasn’t found the key to make the SF-23 a competitive single-seater
What is currently happening in Ferrari It is not easy and Carlos Sainz knows it. The team is very far from the front positions and it is that both Mercedes and Fernando Alonso’s Aston Martin have passed their hand over his face, and they are very far from the second position.
Frédéric Vasseur, leader of Ferrari, continues to drag the problems of the final stretch of the previous campaignwhere a series of successive errors with the pilot, Carlos Sainz, ended up burying all the options of the Italians to win the constructors’ world championship, which ended up falling on the side of Red Bull.
From Ferrari they decide to put an end to the comments about the future of Carlos Sainz
The future that is most in question is that of Carlos Sainz, despite having obtained better results than his partner, Charles Leclerc. The man from Madrid ends his contract in 2024 and, as he has said on several occasions, he has not decided on his future. Vasseur has not helped with his statements either
Vasseur has assured that “to I didn’t choose Carlos Sainz, but I didn’t choose Charles Leclerc either, I found them“, although he later qualified his words and praised the Spaniard: “I am satisfied with Carlos, he is regular and gives important technical indications. I think he is very underrated.”

In an interview, the Ferrari boss has continued to feed the comments about Sainz’s future. Vasseur has admitted that Carlos’ agent has proposed a meeting, precisely, to resolve contractual issues. However, the Frenchman says it is not a priority. and that we will have to resume talks.
“There are 18 months left until the deadline. At this time, introducing the subject of the renewal would be a distraction and I have told your representatives, a couple of weeks ago. The priority is for the drivers to work together to develop the car. Then over the summer, or after, we’ll start talking about it.”
