A shortcoming of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kimi Raikkonen has been exposed by a current Formul✨a 1 driver with a totally opposite ꧒approach.

Legend Raikkonen is the most recent F1 champion for Ferrari, back in 2007, before returni﷽ng to that famous team for a second stint.

But he ended his career with three seasons at Alfa Romeo, the 𒅌team who has evolved into Sꩲauber.

Alfa Romeo’s capture of Raikkonen has been compared to Williams signing F1 grand prix winner 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz.

“It’s not only experienced drivers. It’s dr⛦ivers w🐽ho can give feedback,” L’Equipe journalist Fred Ferret told the F1 Nation podcast.

“If 🐲you speak to the Sauber bosses 𝓡when they had Kimi Raikkonen, he was an experienced driver.

“But hꦦe wasn’t giving any feedback. So the car was tough to improve.”

By contrast, Sainz is praised in the F1 paddock for his willingness and ability to꧙ help 💧develop a car, as well as his proven grand prix winning driving.

“Whenౠ you have Sainz who has driven for Ferrari, and is thorough on his technical feeling, he tells the engineers how to find a way,” Ferret said.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Williams are impressively sitting in P5 in the constructors’ championship after a good start to 2025, led by their drivers Alex Alboꦦn and Sainz.

They have stopped developing this year’s car with a🌳 full focus on the new re💫gulations in 2026.

Sainz 🍒spent a few weeks getting to grips with his new package having left Ferrari but is already proving to be a key signing for the up-and-coming Williams team.

“Carl🙈os has adapted so many times to different teams - he has driven for half of the grid,” Laura Winter saiꦆd.

“He♒ knows how to adapt to a team. He approaches theꦉ challenge with a positive mind-set.

“He wants to find a way to make the car faster. He has come to Williams at an 💞excit💛ing time.

“You also have Carlos Sainz the strategist. You saw him ea🦩rlier in the season crash out, go on the pit wall, and help to make decisions.

“He does that in the car, as well. We’ve heard that so many times throughout his career at Ferra๊ri.

“He has been gettﷺing to grips with thi♋s Williams, but he has moved closer to the Williams.”
