“Ferrari is not a serious team,” Tifosi react in anger as Carlos Sainz suffers another DNF due to suspected brake by wire failure
Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz
Just as we get into the much-awaited Azerbaijan Grand Prix, it already seems like Ferrari is not in luck today. Leading up to the Baku race, Ferrari had vowed to make a comeback after some disappointing instances in the previous races where Charles Leclerc started at the pole position, but missed out on the race win because of some mistakes made by him and his team. But today, Sergio Perez took over the race lead from Charles once again in the first lap itself. And then, in the middle of the race, Charles’ Ferrari started giving out smoke, and he was out of the race in a Grand Prix where he could have won if he retained his P1 position.
Brake by wire failure for Sainz.
He’s out of the race.
