Carlos Sainz reckons a faulty clutch was to blame for his struggles to launch the Ferrari Formula 1 car across the 2023 Brazilian Grand Prix weekend.
The Spaniard lined up sixth on the grid but lost out at the getaway to Sergio Perez and George Russell to slip to eighth by the time the race was red-flagged for a hefty Turn 1 shunt involving Alex Albon and Kevin Magnussen. Sainz then radioed to say his team needed to “bin” the clutch as he bemoaned start problems all weekend. He would later complain about the left gear shift paddle “sticking”. The Singapore GP winner confirmed it was a faulty part rather than a calibration issue.
“It's a shame because I think with Charles in the race it would have been a great opportunity to take away points from Mercedes. “But also, the car pace wasn't great either. So, Aston , McLaren and Red Bull were up in front, and we couldn't fight them really much. A missed opportunity, I think.
