Sainz on Mekies departure: 'Is not that we are just losing people'
Laurent Mekies was the next to leave Ferrari. The 45-year-old Frenchman will go to AlphaTauri to replace Franz Tost. For Ferrari, it was another setback after earlier technical boss David Sanchez also decided to close the door behind him. Carlos Sainz was asked about Mekis’ departure in Baku.
In the end, Alpine had something to celebrate this season. In Monaco, the French team took an equally well-deserved podium. Esteban Ocon has shown that the Alps have pace after all, and in a year in which chief executive Laurent Rossi has ramped up the pressure considerably. The latter demand immediate results. In Monaco, that wish came true.
Carlos Sainz still has a year-and-a-half remaining on his Ferrari contract, but the Spaniard is curious to see what the Italian team plans to do with him after that. Sainz spoke about this in a conversation with Sky Sports. So while he previously said he wasn’t worried about all the rumors surrounding him personally, he wanted clarification soon.
Last week it was Charles Leclerc’s turn and next weekend it was Carlos Sainz’s. Soon, both Ferrari drivers will be competing in their home races. The race in his hometown of Monaco didn’t go his way for Leclerc, with Sainz clearly hoping to please his fans with the best results.
