HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
"On that subject, we could see through practice that our updates to the AMR24 were working as expected, though the timesheets were suggesting otherwise. Some of the journalists were questioning me about our updates not performing. I was able to tell them to wait and see, promising we would talk later. The real headline is that we're on the right path."
POSITIVITY
"I'm very proud of the team at the moment, for the way it's handled itself over the last few races. At this point in the season, it would be easy to be looking to the summer break and losing focus on the race ahead – but that's not what's happening. The mood is very positive. Everyone is still absolutely flat out. It's easy to see in the metrics: whether that's reliability trackside, progress in aerodynamic development, the speed with which production and our supply chain are delivering new parts.
"I'll be addressing the team before we all go on summer break and saying that we have fewer points than last year but that every metric except that one says the team is heading in the right direction. It's not always noticed how much work goes into that every year: into reliability, into preparation, in pitstop practice, in optimisation, but also setup, aerodynamic analysis, aerodynamic research, development, production, finance! It all has to work together – and if you see what we've done over the last year, it's a positive improvement."
How can u believe this? im praying they start to improve that car after the Hungary.
