Next season they will be partners in Ferrari, but Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc still have many issues to settle in this World Cup. At the moment, the McLaren leader can feel more than satisfied having snatched a point from the Monegasque in a difficult Hungarian GP, ​​where he was again delayed during a pit stop.

"It is always difficult to overtake here, even if I had a slightly cooler tire. He made a mistake, I was able to shoot and, at least, we were able to get a point," said Sainz after the maneuver on lap 61, when he was finally able to pass Leclerc. The tenth place, resolved with a beautiful maneuver in turn 1, was a reward for the Spaniard, involved in numerous difficulties throughout the weekend.

The pace of the MCL-35 was much lower than that shown during the two races in Austria, where it was even beaten with Racing Point and Red Bull. From the ninth position on the grid, Carlos was now facing a fight with Renault and Ferrari. He didn't miss the start, but an unexpected situation at the first change of wheels once again ruined his options.

"Bad luck with traffic"

"We have had bad luck with traffic again. We lost five seconds and the race is gone, in the key 'pit-stop'," Sainz explained at the Movistar F1 microphones. He was referring to the moment when, already on dry tires, he was overtaken by five rivals on pit road.

"It was not a team failure, but traffic was coming," reiterated Carlos, who at the time was running ahead of Daniel Ricciardo and who was struggling to get ahead of Kevin Magnussen and Romain Grosjean . At the time, Andreas Seidl's team's goal was eighth position at the finish, where the Australian from Renault finally finished.
