“I haven’t had a very good weekend so far, and it seems like I’m struggling to find the perfect balance of the machine with low downforce. It’s harder to stay in the corners and I’m lacking grip today. The result was 5th. We can. To say that we are a bit inferior in terms of power, but that is no excuse because we need to fine-tune other parts on such a circuit. Which makes us a bit deficient in the corners Obviously. Tried everything I could and tested all the wing levels I was able to race in Monza, but the time of the last lap was the same. Normally we are a bit more competitive in the race, so tomorrow it is still possible to get on the podium. I think it is sexual. It is not easy to overtake and I am very close to the 3rd to 10th place, but I hope to be able to fight for 3rd place. I can’t talk about Mercedes. They are not. I’m on the level. Monza is a very special circuit and I hope to be in third place again once I get back to the normal track. “.

“Unsurprisingly, it was a disaster and hectic qualifying, which made it difficult to attack at the right time. Overall, it was a tough weekend for our team and today’s qualifying results were definitely disappointing, but personally. I am happy with the car here. It has been a quiet weekend for me and of course the ninth does not show it, but I am one step closer to Max (Felstappen) and it is positive. Team I knew before coming here that it would be a tough weekend because it is lower than I expected and the type of low downforce circuit I saw at the spa is not suitable for our car. McLaren is very fast in a straight line and race points are emerging from nowhere today, but we were also hoping for a better time. There are still some corners that are not working and our rivals We are losing time there, but we are a little better in race pace so hopefully we can do something tomorrow t I take into account the degradation of the tires, but I don’t think it will be an easy race. ”

“It’s a pretty normal qualifying for us, and Mercedes is a long way off, but 0.1 and 0.2 seconds make a big difference, and Alex has had several laps canceled, so that’s most of it. It wasn’t a clean race, the car wasn’t in very good shape here and I was a little disappointed that Max’s fifth was very close to third, but I wasn’t expecting to be able to fight Paul, while Alex. He’s a few seconds behind Max, but I’m in ninth place. in such a tight team so I have to work on tomorrow’s race. I have something to analyze tonight, but our driver We are both good riders and we know we will attack tomorrow so turn 1 will be fun. These circuits are not our strongest place, so we understand the areas that we are missing. And work on improvement to get everything we can in tomorrow’s race. ”
