Surprisingly, the Finnish Alfa Romeo driver was only able to finish 12th in the race on Sunday, putting on his worst test of the season.
Alfa Romeo had high hopes for the Monaco Grand Prix, but Saturday’s qualifying ended with disappointing results as Valtteri Bottas took 12th place and Guanyu Zhuo in the final, 20th start in a chaotic time trial.
“This result was somewhat unexpected,” the Finn began in a statement to RaceFans. “I thought we would do well on this track, but the opposite happened. The next race will be on the street track in Baku, but I think our car is still good, it was not suitable for that track,” Bottas continued, hoping that their performance today will be a one-off derailment today. one.
The Finnish weekend wasn’t quite right, as he got stuck again in his bad luck on Friday and had to miss the first entirely free practice due to a MGU-K problem, thus missing out on valuable time. However, Bottas feels the missed workout had no effect on Saturday’s performance.
“Even though I missed the practice, I feel like I was able to find the right cadence. I had a good feel for the settings as well as the grip and was confident with the car. We weren’t fast enough today, although I thought we would be good here, so we need to understand what happened.”
“It’s important to learn from it. I feel like we lost a lot of time in the second sector and the car didn’t feel comfortable in that segment either. Based on that, I think there could be a mechanical reason for the poor performance,” Bottas concluded that he was unable to get into stage three. From the time trial for the second time this year after Australia.
