Carlos Sainz aims to be "best of the rest" at the French Grand Prix

Carlos Sainz qualified in an impressive 6th position and is set to have a competitive race as McLaren look on the pace in the French Grand Prix. However, the Spaniard has admitted that he was not 100% comfortable in his car and will hope that he is more comfortable over the race distance. McLaren are set for an impressive result and will hope to get both cars finishing high in the points.

"We still need to analyze why this track suits us," Sainz said to GPToday. "But I'm very happy, with the team and with the car.

With Lando Norris, his teammate, only starting one place ahead of Sainz in 5th, it will be interesting to see how McLaren handles the possibility of their two drivers racing against each other.

"We're going to be cautious going into tomorrow (Today), try to be best of the rest, and see where Red Bull are," Sainz said.
