Gasly cut for AlphaTauri: 'It wasn't the case'

Pierre Gasly started the free practice for the Russian Grand Prix very well, but in the race the weather conditions prevented him from scoring any points. The Frenchman is disappointed with his team.

In conversation with Motorsport.com he is harsh with his judgement. "I think we just do too many mistakes," Gasly states. "And I think for all of us, we need to just work more and understand how to capitalise on such opportunities. It's a tough one to take, because there was clearly better to do. But hopefully it can be good for the rest of the year."

AlphaTauri's disappointing race was partly due to heavy rainfall on the track. "You need to rely on what the conditions are, how it's gonna get, and I was told that it was gonna stay stable as it was. And unfortunately, it wasn't the case. We need to revise."

Gasly didn't see Red Bull dream come true

Gasly is enjoying an excellent season at AlphaTauri. The French driver had hopes that Red Bull Racing wanted to give him another chance alongside Max Verstappen, but the Austrian formation decided to continue with Sergio Pérez for longer.
