“From my side, you can obviously understand that I got to know the news a bit earlier than anyone else but it’s true I had some weeks to reflect, some weeks to prepare, some weeks to also get ready for the car launch, for the first race ♚of the season so it gives you a bit of time to digest it, take your own conclusions and to focus on the 2024 season that is ahead.

“The fact that it was aꦚ bit of a surprise to the whole Formula 1 world is no nꦦews and it was obviously also for me.”

Even though Sainz’s journey with Ferrari comes to an end t🅰hiওs year, he’s proud of what he’s achieved with the Italian team and believes there’s “going to be good things coming” in the future.

“Well fi💝rst of all I feel very privileged to be part of Ferrari and still having a year ahead - that will be a total of four years as a Scuderia Ferrari driver,” he added.

“I think when you’re a Ferrari driver you can go to every𒈔 team from now on having been in Ferrari, a Ferrari driver. It does good to any driver on the grid. If on top of that, you add the fact that I have won races for Ferrari, I made pole positions, I’ve made podiums.

“I think I’ve helped this team💛 to move forward up the grid. My overall feeling of these four years is definitely positive. I cannot wait t𒁃o see what the future holds for me because I am sure there’s going to be good things coming.”
