2023 Fantasy Outlook
Sainz had his best season in Formula One last year scoring his first victory, 10 podiums, three pole positions, and finishing fifth for the second year in a row. Like teammate Leclerc, last year started brightly for Sainz with three podium finishes from the first five races. He similarly suffered from the squad's mid-season slump, though. In addition to the team's woes, Sainz endured four DNFs due to crashes and a further two more due to mechanical issues. Eliminating those would help him be a bigger player in the championship battle, which he should be capable of considering his pace. Sainz said that he has come to grips with this new generation of car and is looking to deliver more consistency in 2023. He will need the best from the team to be among the championship contenders, but at a minimum we would hope to see Sainz winning multiple races this season. Read Past Outlooks
Finishes 10th in Monaco

Sainz finished 10th in the Monaco Grand Prix F1 race at Circuit de Monaco on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Sainz tallied points for the fourth straight grand prix, though this wasn't his most impressive performance. He failed to reach Q3 for the first time since the Bahrain Grand Prix. That forced him into playing the team game for the first half of the race, backing up the field to allow Williams' teammate Alex Albon a window to pit and remain in 10th place. However, the retirement of Fernando Alonso promoted Sainz one position, giving him a fortunate close to the weekend.
