“One of the best races of my career” believes Gasly

And to think that a year ago we unloaded him like a dirty person Red Bull Racing under the pretext that it had lost its bite... There is no point in remaking history; Pierre Gasly prefers to move forward anyway. 

Luckily the British Grand Prix gave him the opportunity to apply this mantra on track with a valiant climb back to the big points.

Starting 11th after missing Q3 by just a fraction, the Frenchman once again proved that he had lost nothing of his driving skills. Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari) paid the price between the Stowe bend and the Vale chicane. Then it was the turn of Lance stroll (Racing Point) to give in to the Frenchman's attacks as they approached the ultra-fast right of Copse. 

« It was one of my best races of my career, breathed Gasly, finally 7th at the finish after the punctures of Valtteri Bottas (Mercedes) and Carlos Sainz (McLaren). I really had fun on the track. It was very hot but it's the kind of race that makes you love motorsport ». 

We confirm.
