• Carlos Sainz is racing this weekend in Monte Carlo, a lucky charm for him: he has scored three podiums in the last five visits and reached the points in each and every year he has competed there as a Formula 1 driver.
• The twists and turns of the Monaco GP imply that drivers will have no energy constraints: they will be able to deploy it in each and every straight without any limitations, always within the rules set by the FIA.
• Carlos knows it is crucial to build his lap-time from the first practice session, because in 2025 there were only four overtakes. This means that Saturday’s Qualifying is the most important moment of the entire weekend.
