Sainz: 'Pressure is always high at Ferrari, no matter how long your contract'

Carlos Sainz has admitted the pressure is high at Ferrari regardless of the length of the contract. However, Sainz does have a two-year contract in his pocket, which is important to him.

"The pressure is always high at Ferrari. It doesn't matter how many years are in the contract, I want to be quick anyway. But a two-year contract is important to me," said Sainz talking to Motorsport.com.

Stability is important for Sainz

He continued: "That's something I've always said, also at Mclaren: a little stability is always important for a driver. I feel I got a lot more out of the car in my second year at McLaren than I did in my first year."

"And if you look at Daniel Ricciardo at Renault, for example, you can see how important it is to take the time and get to know the car. It's the same with Charles Leclerc: he's not the Charles he was a year and a half ago when he joined Ferrari," Sainz said.
