For the Williams
Martini team the recent Hungarian Grand Prix was one that produced a
disappointing point-less result. But for Team driver Felipe Massa he is
confident that there are "many good tracks for us" still to come in 2015.
Felipe is confident the majority of tracks remaining on the 2015 calendar
will suit Williams and that he is confident that the results in Hungary were
a one-off.
Felipe was asked how optimistic he was that Williams’ Hungary results were a
one-off, he replied: “One hundred per cent confident.
“I don’t think what’s happened you will see [at] every race. We were very
strong in the last race, fighting for the podium and even for first place.
“We need to understand because we have another slow circuit, which is
Singapore [in September], so we have to do everything we can do to get there
and be as competitive as we can. But we will have many, many good tracks for
us and I’m sure we will be back on our pace on many tracks that are good for
us.”
Massa spoke of his race in Hungary by saying: “The pace was really, really
bad. We were very slow, especially me behind the traffic and with the prime
tyres I couldn’t drive at all.
“Maybe the best stint was the last one when I was free with the option
tyres, but even like that it was not quick. I was struggling a lot with the
pace – it wasn’t good at all.”
Of even better news is that the next two races are IN Belgium and Italy
which are at tracks that should therefore be ideally suited to the low-drag
FW37. |
