In the F1 sprint, Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc were forced to “lift and coast” because of a brake problem.

The Ferrari drivers, Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc, had to control the brakes during the F1 sprint race at the Austrian Grand Prix.

In the F1 sprint, Sainz managed to pass George Russell on the first lap, but he was unable to hold off the Mercedes driver and lost.

After holding Lewis Hamilton at bay to maintain fifth place, the Spaniard was obliged to adopt a more cautious approach.

Following the race, it was discovered that both Ferrari drivers were improperly controlling their brake temperatures, which affected their speed.

“We had a good start,” Sainz said in reference to the race to Sky Sports F1. Despite having braking problems, we were able to acquire the DRS of Piastri. We needed to coast and lift, and that

“You could see that they were just a bit quicker than us together. That’s the situation unfortunately.”

Due to an anti-stall issue, Leclerc was forced to stay in the pit lane and was unable to finish a lap in SQ3.

After the first lap, Leclerc was able to move up to sixth, but he was unable to gain any more ground.

Leclerc said, “We did the best we could do.” Sincerely, we filled the majority of the roles at the beginning. The speed is just not good enough after the start. Being the last car in line, we had to deal with the brakes quite a bit.

It wouldn’t change all that much, in my opinion, having altered things. We simply cannot move quickly enough at this time.

“We really need to investigate this as we’re having a lot of difficulties.”
