Carlos Sainz says he and Ferrari have been handed “a bit of a reality check” after he finished fourth at the season opening race in Bahrain, with the Spaniard left concerned by the team’s pace when compared to rivals Red Bull and Aston Martin.

在揭幕戰(zhàn)巴林苦吞第四之后，塞恩斯表示，他和法拉利就好像是被“現(xiàn)實上了一課”。和對頭紅牛馬丁相比，西班牙小伙對車隊的速度感到了擔憂。

After Leclerc retired from the race, Sainz was vaulted up into the final podium place – but he was unable to keep the faster Aston Martin of Fernando Alonso behind for long, with his compatriot overtaking him on Lap 43.

在勒克萊爾退賽后，塞恩斯一度占據(jù)了最后一個領獎臺位置。但他無法阻擋身后快出一籌的阿隆索和他的阿斯頓馬丁，最終在第43圈被西班牙同胞超過。

Sainz was able to fend off Hamilton in a late battle for fourth, but when asked whether he was frustrated not keep a hold of third place, he replied: “Not too much. I was actually surprised how long we were lasting in that position.”

塞恩斯最終抵擋住了漢密爾頓，守住了第四。不過，在被問及是否對丟失第三位感到沮喪時，他回答道：“這倒沒什么，我其實還蠻驚訝的，我們居然可以守（阿隆索）那么久?！?/p>

The Spaniard later explained: “From the test we knew that the Red Bulls and the Aston Martins just have a lot better deg [degredation – ie, how gently they are able to treat their tyres], a lot better race pace than us, and in the end we had to settle for P4, which to be honest is not a lot better than we could have done today.

西班牙車手繼續(xù)說明道：“測試的時候，我們就發(fā)現(xiàn)，紅牛和馬丁對輪胎更加友好，正賽速度也要快不少。最終我們只能止步第四，老實講，我們也許只能做到這么多了。”

“It’s a bit of a reality check, it’s where we are. We just used the tyres too much. As soon as I pushed to defend from Fernando, I cooked the tyres and then you need to start looking also to Lewis. We managed to hold Lewis off, but it gives us very little margin to play with in the race.”

“現(xiàn)實就是如此，這便是我們目前所處的位置。我們對輪胎的使用過度，一旦我開始防守費爾南多，輪胎就堅持不了多久，接下來還要對付劉易斯。我們守住了第四，到輪胎就給我們的余量就不多了?！?/p>

“[It’s] not ideal the reliability, but more than that it worries me the gap to Red Bull and the race pace of Aston, which at the moment is faster,” said the 2022 British Grand Prix winner.

“可靠性也不理想，不過我還是更擔心同紅牛和馬丁的長距離差距，目前他們明顯更快?！边@位2022英國站冠軍如是說。
