F1 should look at the potential safety issues in narrower pitlanes on some circuits, according to Sainz.
Sainz received a five-second penalty for the unsafe release, but the Spaniard is more concerned about the potential risks to crew members in the tighter pitlanes on the calendar."Absolutely, I think it's something that is not talked about enough, that we go to pit lanes during the year that are definitely too tight," he said.
"And I feel Zandvoort's a great track, I want to go back there every year. And I want to keep racing at Zandvoort, Singapore, Budapest, but I'm talking about narrow pitlanes."We need to think about the mechanics and how tight everything is in there, because it's just too tight. And I think we need to improve the safety."
