Carlos Sainz Jr.: Suffers from grid penalty

Rotowire ·

Sainz finished 16th at the Belgian Grand Prix F1 race at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps on Sunday.

Analysis:

Sainz did well to reach Q2, narrowly beating teammate Alex Albon. However, he started 19th on the grid after a penalty accrued during the British Grand Prix was imposed. That, combined with the subpar pace of the Williams, doomed Sainz to the back of the midfield and prevented him from contending for points. He has now gone five races without recording a point.
