Gasly enjoys new status in F1 paddock: 'That's changed'
- GPblog.com
One of the most surprising and perhaps most beautiful moments of the past F1 season was Pierre Gasly's victory in the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. After a miserable 2019 he has once again put himself in the spotlight with this victory. He noticed the changes that come with it.
"The way people talk to me hasn't changed. I don't think anything changed who I am as a person. Race winner or not, I'm still the same guy. My CV is just a little better now," says Gasly in an AMA for Reddit.
More media and fan attention
"As far as my new status is concerned...I do get more media attention and I am followed and supported more. And of course there aren't many race winners in the paddock, certainly not in midfield, so that has changed in a way."
Due to the busy schedule Gasly says he hasn't had much time to reflect on his victory yet. When he had his parents on the phone crying with happiness right after the race, he immediately realised it was something special, but now he wants to use his free time to look back on it with his family.
