grappled with a number of obstacles during the Austrian Grand Prix. A collision at the race's start marked the beginning of a series of difficulties that impacted his vehicle's performance drastically. The Monegasque driver has opened up on the struggles as well as the setbacks with Ferrari's developments this season.
"Well, first of all we lost a lot with the front wing change at the beginning, then we did a whole stint behind Lando where I couldn't overtake because otherwise I would have had blue flags and would have had to let him go again. "I mean, I tried to hold back, but I think... I think Checo was a little optimistic, it never ends well in the first corner if you try to go three-wide. The double-wide is already difficult enough, so the triple-wide was very difficult. Oscar didn't know, Checo was on the inside and I was a passenger. And then when you brake, Checo brakes even later and so once you're there, you're there. So I tried to manage the situation as best as I could, but it was impossible.
"The downforce values brought by the new package are as expected and I confirm that, but this has brought other limitations that we need to examine, because since we introduced it we have had some difficulties. Today we set up the car in a completely opposite way, so I think there are many things to learn from the two configurations. I didn't feel comfortable, but we will analyse them and compare them.
