Gasly: ​​“Understand the behavior of the car as quickly as possible”

With only 8 points on his account after 4 Grands Prix, Pierre Gasly (Alpha Tauri) does not achieve the hoped-for start to the season. Unlucky and lacking rhythm, the Habs have not yet been able to exploit the full potential of their AT02 this year.

« We know we have to improve everything in order to be in the middle of the pack battle, points the finger at the Grand Prix winner. The potential is there, but with a few teams having taken a step forward, we know we have to work hard if we want to continue to fight with them for the rest of the season.

It's impossible not to make mistakes but we have to try to do things perfectly and have more speed if we want to score points every weekend ».

And this process starts this weekend near Monaco, a route that the Normand is “ very happy " to find. “ This is a very special circuitHe says. It has nothing to do with the first four tracks of the year (Bahrain, Imola, Portimão and Barcelona).

It presents unique challenges including less grip. We will therefore have to understand as quickly as possible the behavior of the car, working on what we need to do to be fast and thus extend our series of points finishes. ».

The Frenchman therefore plans to spend “ as much time as possible on the track » to adapt and strengthen your confidence before the most important deadlines of the weekend.
