Sainz responds to Ricciardo’s Imola apology

Carlos Sainz says it shows the type of sportsman Daniel Ricciardo is that he came to apologise after their Imola crash.

Sainz has endured a nightmare couple of races at the wheel of the Ferrari F1-75, the latest disappointment being the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix at Imola, where Sainz was tagged by Ricciardo coming out of Turn 1 at the start.

This was the second time in as many races that Sainz’s Sunday ended very prematurely, having spun out of the Australian Grand Prix two weeks prior.

Ricciardo would go to the Ferrari HQ to apologise personally to Sainz, a move which the Spaniard respected greatly.
