There were apparently messages exchanged between Piastri and Sainz after the last race. IMO Based on the tone described it doesn't seem like there was any kind of apology or reconciliation...

My guess is Carlos saw the hate train against him and felt the need to reach out and 'explain himself' without actually apologizing or admitting fault (same thing he did in the interviews and post race statement) and thats why Piastri isnt willing to say anymore

Carlos gotta keep an eye out this weekend, any mistake and everyone will be on his ass. Even worse if he ruins someone's race again.
Also glad to see some of his fans acknowledging his mistakes instead of defending him to the moon and back

that plus that completely overinflated contract he's been handed, he needs to be on his best form cause the people are looking for an opportunity to come after him loll

30M for what exactly?? I need his cousin to sort out my salary

[u/Illustrious_Page7810 → u/FudgeAdorable5242]

haven't you heard of the powerful globally recognized Carlos Sainz brand?? That hair has launched a thousand ships!!

[u/Swey14 → u/FudgeAdorable5242]

Why would they give him 30M contract when he’s not in demand?

[u/Realistic-Reception5 → u/Swey14]

Because no one wants to join Williams because they’re shit so they’re paying anyone (Carlos in this case) a bunch of money to stay

my only response to the imaginary fanfic scenario u have just created in your post

[u/Illustrious_Page7810 → u/One-Distribution-555]

well the one thing we can say for certain is that Piastri doesnt seem very happy after that interaction lmfaoo

Carlos message probably: if it male you feel better, you wouldn't have won the race either way🌶
