Carlos Sainz "very disappointed" after disastrous Mexican GP for McLaren F1

McLaren were on for a good result after the opening 10 laps, but it soon unravelled for the Woking-based team. Carlos Sainz claims the hard tyre ruined his race, while a pitstop mistake cost Lando Norris.

“It’s been a bad and frustrating afternoon for the whole team. After such a strong qualifying yesterday and a great start today, managing to slip into P4, it was very disappointing to go backwards after the first pit-stop," Sainz said.

Although Renault picked up a double points finish, McLaren are still in a comfortable position to claim the 'best of the rest' position in the F1 constructors' championship.
