🗣 'I still think it’s going to be a tough call to get a podium tomorrow.' Carlos Sainz still expects Sergio Perez to give Red Bull a 1-2 in F1's SpanishGP, despite the Mexican starting 11th – nine places behind the Ferrari driver ⬇️
Perez could not match Verstappen’s pace or confidence on the slippery track surface – doused in rain during FP3 and still greasy when Q1 got going amid spots of rain falling at the southern end of the circuit.
When Perez had a trip through the Turn 5 exit gravel late in Q2, he could not rally to progress to Q3, where a final flier elevated Sainz to second just as Verstappen was abandoning his last lap, as he and Red Bull knew pole was already secure. But Sainz fears Red Bull’s pace in a dry Barcelona race is so superior, Perez could yet charge through the pack.’s best each time on a high-fuel run late in FP2, with one Autosport source suggesting the Dutchman alone could pull off a one-stop strategy with that advantage.
“It will be still tough to get [second in the race],” Sainz told the post-qualifying press conference. “Especially with Checo coming from P11 with a Red Bull. “I think as soon as I get back to the engineers, they will tell me that the simulation suggests that the Red Bulls should still finish ahead of us.
