Sainz and Roberto Carlos, in the Miami circuit this ThursdayRV RACING PRESS
“In the first five races, Williams has entered all, in Q3 with at least one carwhich demonstrates consistency and also demonstrates a bit that The options I had last year, people begin to understand the change of equipment Or why I chose her as one of the best options, “he stressed, implying that he is also very satisfied with his current team.
“The progress that is being done in that sense of consistency and to take a step forward that, as everyone expected, is there, so It seems that we are going in the right direction “, He assured in the previous one of an always special appointment for the environment and the Vips that always attend.
Be right
“It was a very difficult year, I understand that if it was difficult from outside, with all the variables that there were, from within with more information, it was still difficult and now it is seen that it is working. But it is that it is that it is that For me there is no reason or not being rightit is with the information you have at that time trying to make the best possible decision, time, we still need more time to analyze that and others. “
Comfortable with those of Grove
“What I know is that, even if I had been wrong or not, I am happy, it is a team that I love. I see super motivated people, very enthusiastic people with their work and I like to work with people like that and I am having fun next to the results. If you leave the results apart, which is always the main thing, but apart from that I am having fun and I am working with people that I like very much ”
Suffering in China
“For me China sure was a complicated weekend, a weekend that there was no No speed, no rhythm, or consistency, But the rest of the weekends, if for example you take in Australia, there was speed and rhythm. There was no consistency, but what worries me is speed and rhythm, while the speed and rhythm is, the rest is coming and I think the speed has been there from the beginning, less in China, and all you have to do is put weekends together and the first time I have done that has been in Jeddah. “
The top
“No, I know that I have not yet arrived, I think you speak as if it had already arrived for a weekend and I have not yet reached that point where I know that I am 100%, I have not arrived yet and I am missing races, I lack experiences and I have moments to realize if I am going in the right direction or not. “
Los Sprint
“We’ll see, here is Sprint, the Sprint, to whom we have changed team and we are still a little new, I think it is not what comes best to us at the time of the season. But who knows, I hope it is a good weekend. I thought about the long race, I mean that there are circuits in which the pilots say ‘Oh, this circuit in which you find yourself more confidence or depends on the car you find the day with it. “
“I think there are circuits that, if you understand the car well, you can start at a good level since Friday. I think, for example, in Bahrain, where I did not do the free 1, but then I made very good free 1, and in Jeddah, where I made very good free one, you can be at a good level and quickly and that is what I have to try to apply here in Miami because you need it for the sprint.”
The Williams and its old cars
“I think that last year (Williams), who was able to qualify well but then went back in the race. This year, with the improvements we have done and the things I have been able to contribute, I think it is a more level car for the race, but I still think it is far from where I want to be. In relation, for me A good reference is the Ferrari last year, which was not so good in classification, but in the race it was a super solid car And what I am working on is to try to put this car at that level, although I know that this year we will not arrive because we are not going to invest neither time or money in developing a car that has an expiration date in six months … but we are going to try to learn things that we can apply for the car next year with a change of regulation. “
Little investment in the middle zone
“I hope yes. On the one hand I hope that yes, because it means that at least this year, if we do not develop this car, it will keep us in the fight for the points, which is fun, because in the end you are struggling to take points, and if on the other hand they do not, on the other hand, on the other hand good news, because it means that in the long term we will be better, but my feeling is that all the teams that are not fighting for the World Cup this year will
