Carlos Sainz claimed an impressive victory at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday, breaking Max Verstappen’s dominant grip over this F1 season as the Red Bull driver was forced to retire from the race.
Remarkably, it marked Sainz’s first race back since undergoing appendix surgery just two weeks ago, after appendicitis had caused him to withdraw from the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix where he was replaced by 18-year-old reserve driver Oliver Bearman. The Spaniard began the race second on the grid, behind pole-sitter Verstappen, and stuck close to the three-time world champion before easily overtaking him on the second lap to take the lead.
” The Dutchman’s departure from the race left the remainer wide open such has been his dominance over the last two seasons. Sainz’s lead was never truly threatened, though, and he held onto secure victory with his teammate Charles Leclerc finishing second to complete a Ferrari 1-2. “I felt really good out there,” Sainz told Sky Sports after the race.
