Sainz’s big break, Arnoux’s adventurous past 

This week on Motorsport.com PRIME – our exclusive subscription members’ club – we’ve got a contrast across the ages: First up, how McLaren’s split from Honda has, strangely, benefited Carlos Sainz the most, as he gets a loan switch to the factory Renault F1 squad. At the other end of the spectrum, F1 Racing’s long-form interview with 1980s F1 ‘enfant terrible’ Rene Arnoux is a must-read. Damien Smith asked all the right questions, from Rene’s glory days at Renault and Ferrari, his epic battle against Gilles Villeneuve at Dijon – which many still say was F1’s best-ever wheel-to-wheel duel ­– and his thoughts on Alain Prost and why he really left Ferrari. His answers are (mostly!) forthright… Besides that, the fans ask (sometimes brutal) questions of Sauber’s Pascal Wehrlein, and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson asks what next for Ferrari’s title hopes? And don’t miss the Singapore issue of GP Gazette too!
