Carlos Sainz Jr. on his social networks
Underwent a smooth operation today and I'm feeling much better! Thank you for all your kind messages and to everyone that has looked after me these days here in Saudi, especially at the King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital. THANK YOU.
Recall that Carlos took part in two practice runs prior to the GP of Saudi Arabia (6 and 7 place), after which the rac⛄er had acute appendicitis, and he needed emergency hospitalizat❀ion.
The Spaniard will be🍸 replaced by the team's reserve driver, 18-year-old Briton Oliver Bearman, starting from the third free practice and until the end of the race weekend.
In early Jan🐲uary it became known that Sainz will leave Scuderia after the current season. Lewis Hamilton will take his place in the team.
