It was a sweet feeling for Sainz, who was informed before the start of the season that he would lose his race seat to seven-times world champion Lewis Hamilton in 2025. With his F1 future up in the air, Sainz said the win would certainly not hurt his chances of picking up another drive."I am still without a job for next year."I don't race to prove to team principals my value. I race for myself ... That's the mentality and approach I have and will continue to."
