“I won with Ferrari, but even if Fernando Alonso be in the Formula 1, I will always be a little in your shadow“: that’s how sincere he seems Carlos Sainz during an interview in ‘Auto Motor und Sport’ when he asked about the importance of his compatriot in Spain.
And in fact, the Madrid native recognizes that it is normal: “But it is also understandable. I was his biggest fan for ten years“.
And the journey and the showcase of the Asturian invite this: “For the Spaniard, he will always be the Fernando who conquered Formula 1 and set new national records. “People in Spain still love him.”
“So I understand why all the fans, newspapers and TV channels behave like this,” added the Ferrari driver.
In the aforementioned interview, Sainz also touched on another very interesting topic: why Red Bull rejected him and his alleged bad relationship with Max Verstappen.
