After making several aggressive overtakes, including two close overtakes on teammate Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz Jr. expressed relief at being able to unleash his aggressive side while finishing third at the Bahrain Grand Prix on Saturday.

F1 fans were outraged when Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz was left stranded at the Parc Ferme after taking the podium for the Italian squad.


The Spaniard had a terrific race, finishing third in the main race at the Sakhir International Circuit ahead of his teammate Charles Leclerc. The 29-year-old made some amazing moves on the track to pass his competitors after starting from fourth place.

It is Sainz's first podium result since October, and he begins his final season with Ferrari on a strong note. The record 24-race season implies a long farewell before Lewis Hamilton takes over his seat next year. Sainz continues to look for a squad for 2025.

Fans calls Ferrari ‘Garbage Team’ as Carlos Sainz is not celebrated

The Ferrari F1 squad failed to please fans after the race, as no team member came to welcome Carlos Sainz at Parc Ferme. F1 fans flocked to social media to comment on a video of the Spaniard alone after the race, with one fan alleging that the Italian squad is just like this, which is why they haven't won the championship in 17 years.
