Gasly: Silverstone is least suitable for our car.
The Alpine team is in last place in the Constructors' Championship, fifteen points behind their closest rivals from Sauber. According to Pierre Gasly, at Silverstone, the Enstone team will not be able to reverse their negative trend.
Pierre Gasly: "I am mentally prepared for a very difficult weekend. The fight in the midfield is extremely tight, but it seems we are positioned closer to the back.
From the beginning of the season, we knew that Silverstone is one of those tracks that doesn't suit our car very well. The team knows it will be tough, but that won't affect our approach – we will try our best.
I am praying for rain. Maybe it will intensify the situation on the track and, hopefully, give us more chances."
