Carlos Sainz admitted that 2022 has been a "nightmare" for Ferrari after promising so much at the beginning of the season.
Things started well for Ferrari in general, with Charles Leclerc winning two of the first three races to set the early pace in the championship. But while the Monegasque was flying, Sainz had some difficulties adjusting to driving the F1-75.
By the time the Spaniard got to grips with the car, things started to go downhill for his team. A mixture of engine reliability problems, some poor strategy decisions and no small amount of bad luck derailed their title charge and left them a long way off runaway champions Max Verstappen and Red Bull.
