Gasly: ​​“I want even more”

Those who expected to find a Pierre Gasly relaxed and hilarious upon finding him in the Hockenheim paddock, they didn't really have much in their favor. Smiling, the Frenchman certainly was, but his fine 4th place at the end of a very solid British GP did not make him a new man, at least in appearance. 

« We have worked hard since the start of the season to try to get the best out of the team and myself, he recited again when asked if something had happened in the green English countryside. 

It’s a continuous effort and it’s starting to pay off. A lot of things have changed. There are so many. Lots of little details which, combined with each other, make a big difference. I don't want to go into too much detail but the pieces of the puzzle are falling into place. ». 

If Gasly admitted that it was nice not to have to face questions about his difficulties at the start of the season, he also remains aware that a swallow never made spring. 

« It's obviously nice to get a good result but that's not the ultimate goal., declared the Norman. I always want more. My mentality is to see what I can still improve to achieve this kind of performance more often and do even better. 

Although there was significant progress, everything was not yet perfect. When you arrive in a new team, there are lots of different parameters to manage and it takes time to master everything ». 

Given the increased performance of Red Bull over the last two weekends of competition, it is a safe bet that the German Grand Prix will give him the opportunity to confirm the improvement started in England. It’s up to Gasly to seize it.
