On Sunday, September 17, the world of motorsport saw two unbeaten records drawing to a close in Singapore. While Red Bull Racing had their winning streak ending at 15 races (including one from 2022), Max Verstappen failed to win a race for the first time after 10 races (both the winning streaks are Formula 1 records). However, for Carlos Sainz Jr. and Ferrari, it was a night to remember at the Marina Bay Street Circuit.
Even though this win hardly thwarts Max Verstappen’s bid for a third consecutive F1 World Championship, the Dutch driver would have cherished winning the Singapore Grand Prix 2023, a victory that would have been his first in the Southeast Asian nation. Much akin to 2022, Verstappen even missed out on a podium spot on Sunday.
Rubbing salt on Red Bull Racing’s wounds, their other driver, Sergio Perez, failed to grab a place on the podium as well, unlike last year. With Ferrari securing the first and the fourth places, the Red Bull team is bound to feel gutted having lost their first race of the 2023 season, though they remain the overwhelming favourites to win the Constructor’s Championship title.
With this win, Carlos Sainz Jr. secured his second finish on the podium in 2023 and shortened the gap with fourth-placed Fernando Alonso to 28 points on the Drivers’ Standings. On the back of his performance, Ferrari also inched closer to the second spot on the Constructor’s Standings as they moved within 24 points of Mercedes with their fifth podium finish for the season.
So, as the motorsport world revels in the success of Carlos Sainz Jr. and celebrates the second race win of his career, we take a look at the Spaniard’s net worth, all of his impressive assets, the brands he endorses and more.
