“I have seen a lot of progress in me since the Bahrain GP,” Carlos Sainz delighted after P3 finish in Jeddah

Carlos Sainz as always put forth a brilliant performance and secured third place in the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix on the Jeddah race track, the fastest street track under the lights. There was a bit of confusion near the pit wall while the safety car was in place but in no time, he was given back his position by Sergio Perez.

Even since Carlos had been consistent in his performance and did not let Perez pass him and secured his position on the podium. Although it was a close call with Checo, Carlos admitted to being confused with the pit lane line under the pressure but he did get a bit lucky with the safety car rules and does respect Stewart’s decision and said that “the rules are rules and I think I was just ahead with the safety car line” and since then, “it was all about holding onto P3”, said Carlos.
