Carlos Sainz wants a new contract with Mclaren for 2021
Carlos Sainz has expressed his desire to sign a new contract with McLaren for the 2021 Formula 1 season, as his current contract is set to expire at the end of 2020.
Carlos Sainz has expressed his desire to extend his stay at McLaren beyond the expiration of his current contract at the end of 2020.
In an official Formula 1 poll, Sainz was voted as the fourth-best driver of the 2019 season by his fellow drivers.
As he looks to continue pushing forward, the 25-year-old has no specific targets for the 2020 season but emphasized the importance of maintaining progress and closing the gap with the teams ahead.
While Sainz acknowledges the difficulty of repeating his sixth-place finish in the drivers’ championship and securing another podium in 2020, he remains optimistic about McLaren’s chances.
He believes that the start of the season will be similar to the end of 2019, with three dominant teams, but hopes that McLaren can be the first team to reduce the one-second gap to the front-runners.
As for the end of next year, when his contract expires, Sainz is happy with McLaren and has no intention of looking elsewhere.
Although he thinks it is too early to discuss 2021, he is motivated to continue making strides with the team, and he sees 2021 as an opportunity for everyone in Formula 1 to start from scratch and make the sport even more competitive and enjoyable.
Sainz attributes his improved form this year to the stability provided by McLaren, compared to his first three years at Red Bull, where he only had one-year contracts.
He did not have a medium-term project or the same level of stability as he does at McLaren. Additionally, he no longer has to fight with his teammate every season, as he did when he was at Toro Rosso and Red Bull, and he enjoys a good working relationship with his current teammate, Lando Norris.
Sainz believes that being in this situation, where he can showcase his potential, was something he always wanted.
