Collector Gasly – Flavio Briatore: “Only a great driver can do that”

Over the past few 2024 Grands Prix, the charismatic Italian has gotten to know Pierre Gasly. Seduced by the Frenchman's personality and impressed by his driving, he's counting on him more than ever to help him elevate the Enstone team to the top of the hierarchy. Words from the boss.

The problem with the mafioso is that he adapts to everyone, right up to the CEO of Renault. He's neither a technician nor a visionary. He's just good at taking a lot of cash and bringing in one or two sponsors. Even his address book is rotten. He's known like the white wolf in the industry! Otherwise, he would have been recruited long before as a top team. Gasly is a good driver, fast and focused. But he's not Ocon. It will be easier to fire him...

"Only a great driver can do that" Words from a boss... or rather from Brille A Tort! "Il Magnifico" Flavio could very well say the opposite soon and dismiss Gasly as if nothing had happened. Interesting to note that The King of Cheaters was talking with George Russell in the Shanghai paddock... to anticipate Vestappen's arrival in 2026 at Brackley in place of Russell and Gasly's departure in order to line up Russell / Colapinto in 2026?
