Valtteri Bottas: We have a tough weekend ahead.

      Each subsequent stage of the championship is a kind of debut for Cadillac, which is having its first season in Formula 1, and now the new American team is preparing for the Austrian Grand Prix. As its press service writes, at the Red Bull Ring, they will have to overcome certain difficulties related to the fact that the technology on the high-speed track operates under high loads, which means that the MAC-26 car will have to withstand a reliability test, and in this area, Cadillac is not yet doing well. Sergio Perez: "You can feel that we are progressing with each race, and at the stage in Barcelona, the team gathered a lot of valuable information. The pace of modernization remains high, everyone at the team base is working as intensively as possible, trying to prepare technical innovations that we will test on the track this weekend. Let's hope that the next set of updates will allow us to take another step forward."

      Valtteri Bottas: "When we deal with various issues, we always learn certain lessons, and the process of modernizing the car continues. During this work, we are gradually progressing, literally week by week. I have many wonderful memories associated with the Austrian track, not only about the victories in 2017 and 2020 but also about my first start from the front row and my first podium in Formula 1 – in the 2014 race, I finished third there. This time we are facing a tough weekend, but I am looking forward to it."
