Carlos Sainz Jnr - Could he get a top drive in 2017?
I was reading Mark Hughes analysis of Carlos' time together against Max and it makes very interesting reading and is precisely the sort of analysis we all should be doing when working out the relative merits of drivers.
Essentially what MH was saying is that when you purely take all the races last years where there were no mitigating circumstances Max beat Carlos 6-4 but there was probably only a 10th of a second between them on outright pace, maximum. When you look at what Max did in the RB straight away in Catalunya, this paints Carlos in a very positive light and bodes very well for Sainz's long term F1 career. Would Ferrari consider him as a replacement for Kimi? Should we consider him in the same breadth as Max, Stoffel etc as potentially one of the top 3-5 drivers of the next 10 years or so? |
