Manor Marussia does everything possible to drive

Manor Marussia has still not materialized his incredible efforts to appear this weekend in the paddock of the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. After having worked hard to prepare the single-seaters meeting the regulations in force, the men of Graeme Lowdon must face numerous problems, some of which come from the software aspect.

« It's not just a software problem, there are many problems,
explains the latter at a press conference. None are really a big surprise considering what it took to get the team here in a very, very short amount of time. So I would say the issues we're dealing with right now are not unusual for what we do, which is putting the infrastructure in and out of the cars so they can race. We do our best and we handle every issue and try to resolve them as quickly as we can. We are perfectly happy with what we have. I know there has been, and I don't know where this all came from, a lot of speculation as to whether it's about the software Ferrari or not. We have a number of things we need to sort out. »

Comments immediately confirmed by the Team Principal of Scuderia Ferrari. “They had to move quickly, they got the license to take part in the championship very late, so we are working together to make sure they can ride as soon as possible. As Graeme said, it's not just a problem on the software. With the engine, even last year's, it's quite complicated to set up. It is not an easy task. We have a to-do list, but we're moving forward on that list and we're pushing really, really hard. »

Graeme Lowdon also clarified that he was not unable to say that the two cars of Will Stevens and Roberto Merhi would be in action tomorrow. " I can assure you that we are fully engaged. » concludes the Sports Director.
