Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz is one of the most consistent performers on the Formula One grid right now. The Spanish driver impressed everyone with his drives in the 2021 season, where he finished P5 in the championship. He claimed 4 podiums in his first season with the prancing horses and help them get P3 in the constructors’ championship.

Recently, Carlos took to social media to update his fans on the tickets available for his grandstand at the Barcelona circuit. It is unclear whether the track would have a grandstand for Sainz this year. The Ferrari driver provided an update on the same issue on the Instagram story.

” Many of you have been asking me if there will be a GrandaCS55 this year at the Spanish Grand Prix. We are working on it and I hope to give you some good news soon. Stay Tuned,” wrote Sainz.

Does Carlos Sainz have his own grandstand at the Spanish GP?

As reported by Carlos Sainz’s official website, the Spanish driver got his own grandstand at the Catalunya circuit in 2020. Since he was the only Spanish driver on the grid at that time, the circuit presented him with his own grandstand to give him more support during the race. The then McLaren driver updated his fans about the grandstand.

“Having the CS55 Grandstand makes me very happy because it brings Formula One closer to the fans. This year we will return to the third sector, where we were in our very first year with this project.

The visibility is very good. You can follow the track action from the braking into Turn 10 to the entry of the chicane at Turn 13. It is so spacious that it is almost like being at a football stadium,” said Carlos.

“On top of the tickets and the gifts we have prepared together with McLaren, the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, and Estrella Galicia 0,0. This time I’ve hidden three stickers in three seats.

The lucky fans who happen to have one of those seats will live a very special experience that will make this Grand Prix one to remember,” said the former McLaren driver.

Although he could not use the grandstand as a McLaren driver because of Covid-19 restrictions, hopefully, his loyal fans will now turn up in red to show support for the leading Spanish driver.
