Carlos Sainz has renewed his contract as a race driver of Scuderia Ferrari for another two seasons, until the end of the 2024 Formula 1 World Championship. By then, he will have already contested in ten Formula 1 seasons.

Carlos joined Ferrari in 2021. So far, he has clinched six podiums with the team (two of them in the current season) and a fifth place in the Drivers’ Championship. The new agreement was announced in the days leading to the GP del Made in Italy e dell’Emilia Romagna, held in Imola at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari.

This new deal ratifies the confidence that the most successful team in history has put in him to get back on top of the World Championship, a goal that he is chasing at the moment at the wheel of a F1-75 that has started the 2022 Championship as one of the leading cars of the field.
Carlos made his Formula 1 debut with Toro Rosso in the 2015 season when he was only 20 years old. He joined Renault before the end of the 2017 Championship and then McLaren in 2019. During the spring of 2020, Ferrari confirmed him as his racing driver for the following season.
Carlos’ new contract goes through the end of the 2024 Championship. By then he will have already raced in ten Formula 1 seasons and appeared in more than 200 Grand Prixes.

I have always said that there is no better Formula 1 team to race for and after over a year with them, I can confirm that all my expectations have been exceeded. Putting on this race suit and representing this team is a great honour for me and I really look forward to keep enjoying our journey together. My first season at Maranello was solid and constructive, with the whole group progressing together and the result of all that work has been clear to see so far season".

“I feel confident and hugely motivated after this renewal as it shows the trust in me and now I can’t wait to get in the car, to do my best for Ferrari and to give its fans plenty to cheer about. When I joined the team in 2021 the goal was to help Ferrari get back to the winning ways and to fight for both Championships. Now, the F1-75 is proving to be a front-runner, which truly allows me to chase those goals".
