Carlos Sainz has said that warning signs over Ferrari’s race-pace difficulties in Formula 1 were already flashing up at the end of last year.have struggled for much of this season with their SF-23 proving to have a lack of consistency, especially on Sundays.
“People a lot of times were blaming it on the strategy. But actually, I think a lot of times we were just never as fast as them in the race, like in Budapest or in Austin, or places where we put it on pole and then we went backwards. Reflecting on the timing of Ferrari committing to the 2023 design, Sainz said: “I think it's something interesting because, if you look back at last year, by the time this car was born, it was when we were still super competitive.
“Maybe if the second half of the season, it would have come earlier, maybe the first half [of 2023] would have been easier. You can see it both ways. “It's a car that can surprise you. It's a car that is difficult. You can see it from the outside, but at least I understand more or less how I need to set it up and how I need to drive it.
