Carlos Sainz has been in outstanding form during the ongoing 2024 F1 season. Since 2016, he has had a grandstand named after him at the Spanish GP at Catalunya called GradaCS55. He is a beloved figure in Spain and typically has a grandstand filled with supporters. Recently, tickets for the grandstand were made available for the upcoming Spanish GP at the end of June. The tickets quickly sold out and Carlos Sainz expressed his gratitude to his fans on his social media account for their support amidst his uncertain contract situation. The grandstand, which can accommodate up to 3800 spectators, was one of the first to be sold out. Fans who purchased tickets for the stand will receive various rewards and an official Carlos Sainz cap.
Sainz expressed his amazement and gratitude for the overwhelming support his fans have shown by selling out the grandstand so quickly. He is eager to repay his fans by delivering an exceptional race during the Catalunya event and securing a competitive seat for the next season. Since his move to Ferrari for 2025 was announced, Carlos Sainz has been on a remarkable winning streak. He showcased his brilliance by winning the Australian Grand Prix just two weeks after missing out on the Saudi Arabian GP due to Appendicitis. In addition, he is the only driver this season to have achieved a 100% podium rate.
Sainz’s exceptional performance has consistently placed him ahead of his teammate in all the races he has participated in this year. According to Spanish Journalist, Sainz is using his outstanding performances to send ‘facts’ to his teammate. He has always been encouraged by his father to send little ‘messages’, and now he is sending undeniable facts. This is the reward for all his hard work, and it is clear that many teams will be eager to have him.
Sainz’s improved performance is something that his teammate will undoubtedly be keeping an eye on. Overall, Sainz is more comfortable in the SF24, allowing him to extract maximum performance in both qualifying and the race.
