Words from Perez

After the good performances at Silverstone, we are ready for Spa, which represents a very different challenge compared to all the other circuits on the calendar. Not only is it much longer, but there the heart always beats a little faster“, this is the comment from Sergio Perez. “It is a very high-speed circuit, and unusual as it presents a negative G-force when tackling the compression of Eau Rouge. It will be interesting from the point of view of energy management and car behavior, as well as tire management, so on Friday we will focus on these aspects, as well as analyzing the developments we will bring to the track“.

Words from Bottas

At Silverstone I felt we were making real progress both in terms of reliability and competitiveness“, added Valtteri Bottas. “Now I look forward to seeing how the situation has evolved in the last two weeks. We will have to work hard this weekend to maximize our potential. We tend to think of Spa as a circuit focused exclusively on speed, but in reality it is a circuit where the driver really has to trust the car to decisively tackle the fastest corners and run the curbs at high speed. We have worked a lot in the factory to make sure we arrive this weekend with a good basic setup, which allows us to make the most of the free practice sessions and progress from there“.
