The return to the track from the summer holidays has had more than positive implications for several riders, including the AlphaTauri driver. Pierre Gasly. The Frenchman, returning from a period of pre-holidays that was anything but satisfactory in terms of results, was in fact able to conclude in points area in Spa-Francorchamps with an excellent 9th placeending a racing curse outside the top-10 after five GPs.
The last time that the 26-year-old from Rouen was in fact able to place himself in the top ten was in mid-June with the stage of Bakuwhere he finished 5th in what is still synonymous with his best finish this season.
Limited to the Belgian test, Gasly thus commented on his performance, thanks to which he goes back to one point behind Daniel Ricciardo and two from Kevin Magnussen, the latter in eleventh position. However, the transalpine also revealed an episode that occurred before the departure: “I have to say I am extremely satisfied with the race – he has declared – before the start I was furious because we started from 8th place and we had a electrical problem, so much so that the machine did not turn on. We had to push the car all the way to the garage, but ninety seconds before the start of the race the car started running again. I’m not sure what happened. Starting from the pit lane, I tried to stay focused and composed as best I could. I am surprised that we have managed to make it into the top 10 ″.
