Mercedes and Aston Martin back in contention as Ferrari reveal key breakthrough

Carlos Sainz, driver for the Ferrari Formula 1 team, is confident that the team is back to being competitive with Aston Martin and Mercedes following a strong race performance. Ferrari’s strategic decision to start both drivers on the medium tires, instead of opting for a cheap pit stop under the safety car, proved to be a wise move as they prioritized track position.

Both Sainz and his teammate, Charles Leclerc, were able to manage their tire wear effectively, allowing them to maintain strong positions throughout the race and ultimately finish in fourth and fifth place, respectively.
