It’s our pleasure to host fans Mollie and Julia, who yesterday were subjected to the abuse reported by many at the #AustrianGP.
Notable posts from Twitter, Instagram and more: I think it was the right thing to do, but just didn’t have quite enough pace and Fernando got that one point from me in the last lap with fresh tyres and that was annoying.”Īdvert | Become a RaceFans supporter and go ad-free “So that’s why we stopped, tried to find some clean air and went to like kind of a hard-hard. “I pretty quickly realised I was stuck behind the DRS train in the beginning. “It’s not good but we tried,” said Bottas. So we need to keep progressing.”Īlfa Romeo failed to add to their points tally in Austria. But that was not the case in Silverstone. “This weekend they seem better than they have been and Alpine, McLaren were a little bit faster than us. “Some teams clearly have made progress like for example Williams,” said Bottas. Valtteri Bottas said that Alfa Romeo have not kept pace with the development rate of their rivals. “Power units are losing a bit of power with every mileage but at the same time, it allowed us to perform as we did this weekend.” ‘Williams faster than us in Austria’ – Bottas “It wasn’t ideal that he had to go back to the old power unit but that was the team’s solution on Friday,” explained Seidl. “Analysis is still ongoing on Mercedes side and the side at the moment and hopefully we’ll stay in a position to recover the power unit and get it in a better place again. “The power unit that failed on Lando’s side on Friday was a brand new one and was his third one,” team principal Andreas Seidl confirmed. Lando Norris stopped on track during first practice at the Red Bull Ring with a power unit problem, prompting McLaren to revert to older hardware. “He was up on the apex kerb and left more than enough room.” After fitting a replacement front wing to his car, Russell took fourth behind team mate Lewis Hamilton,a result Shovlin called “very satisfying.” McLaren hope to recover Norris’s failed power unit “We felt that George’s penalty for the incident with Sergio was harsh,” he said. However Mercedes’ head of trackside engineering Andrew Shovlin took issue with the decision. Russell was given a five-second time penalty, and two endorsement points on his superlicence, for his first-lap tangle with Perez.
