F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

There's people out there doing half Ironmans or what.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

Well, you, you've done one in the past.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

Well, I did one 10 years ago now, but I'm fit enough to do one for sure, given the amount of cycling, running and everything I'm doing.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

But no, no, it requires too much effort.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

And lately I do things where I can win.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

only if you can win I like to think that I can win so yeah I know in a half Ironman I still cannot win right what can you win golf like my kind of competitions adjusted handicaps yes tennis paddle I'm playing a lot tennis I've started to play a little bit more but paddle is the one that is taking my time now

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

I'm trying to improve at paddle quite a bit.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

And in general, just a lot of cycling, but still I'm not at the level I would like to be.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

I feel I'm in a good place not only on track or with my experience on track but also I think as a human being I think the 30s is a good time because you feel also fit enough to do or very fit to do a lot of things because you've been training them for 10-15 years since you were 15.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

So, yeah, I think in the 30s you still have very good reflexes, good fitness level, good experience.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

So, yeah, I think it's good years to be alive in the 30s.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

Too much, too much.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

I wish that Carlos knew a lot more about Formula One, but it's this kind of sport where you need to live it to understand it.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

And it's been almost 12 years since then.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

And I can tell you my 11 years, 11 years since then.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

And I can tell you the amount of things I've seen in those 11 years in Formula One still surprises me.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

Like the amount of things I've learned and the amount of surprises I've received or seen.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

It's a very particular, very, very special sport in that sense.

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

Where have been your biggest learnings in that time?

F1 Beyond The Grid
Carlos Sainz: pushing for progress with Williams

Like always, the difficult times are always the biggest learnings.
