Carlos Sainz raises health concern amid Singapore haze crisis

Carlos Sainz has voiced his health concerns regarding the air quality in Singapore, which has been severely affected by smoke haze from Indonesian wildfires. The National Environment Agency reported that the Pollutant Standards Index readings across the island have crossed the unhealthy threshold, fluctuating between 101 and 160, indicating a significant health risk for residents and visitors alike.

Despite the hazardous conditions, Sainz mentioned that on-track activities are expected to continue as planned. He acknowledged the irony of racing in such polluted air, stating that drivers have been exposed to fuel burn since their early careers. Sainz emphasised the need to follow official guidance while expressing his personal discomfort with the current situation.
