Pierre Gasly was left unhappy after finishing the Belgian Grand Prix in 13th place amid a number of issues with his car and strategy, marking the latest in a run of challenging weekends for the Frenchman.
Having lined up in P12 on the grid, Gasly found himself stuck in a DRS train for much of the race and crossed the line in P14, which became P13 following winner George Russell’s disqualification.

Reflecting on the Grand Prix afterwards, the 28-year-old voiced his frustration at having another difficult event, having recorded a DNF last time out in Hungary and a DNS two weeks earlier at Silverstone.
“Very not happy, very not happy,” said Gasly. “We had an engine problem the whole afternoon, losing seven tenths down the straights every lap, engine temperature issue, steering isn’t straight the whole race, we missed the right strategy… We just do too many mistakes.
“The last three weekends have been absolutely frustrating. We are not on top of what we should be, basically, and I know the guys can do a lot better than that. It’s been a tough start of the year, then we scored roughly 10 points as a team.
