Franco Colapinto: “Something we will invent for the race”
The Argentine pilot spoke after being 18 in the classification (it will depart 17), ahead of his partner Pierre Gasly, in the F1 Italian GP classification.
Franco Colapinto was serene and even satisfied with his classification of the Italian GP, 16th Formula 1 date. The 18th place of departure that it will have in Monza is not what it intends and where it points, like any pilot, but in the context of Alpine, the worst car of the grill and with the engine that least pushes, end ahead of his partner Pierre Gasly and with good sensations for the progress in the walk of the car during the weekend, is an incentive. Franco has an interesting panorama ahead: he already ran with an F1 on the nine tracks that remain to complete the 2025 World Cup agenda.
“When you go to a circuit that you already know is good, I think that now they will be a clue with more confidence for me. Those clues that you already know what you have to do, maybe you can get a nineteenth,” Colapinto told AM850 After the Italian qualy. Then he performed an analysis of the two days he has been in Monza. “Yesterday (for Friday) I did not like the car, they did not put it well to me in the FP1, Ja,” said Paul Aron’s work, who turned with the collapint chassis in the first batch to comply with the sports regulations that force the teams to give up each car in the year to runners with less than two races in F1
“Last night we worked with the team and in the third practice I had a car that allowed me to push and do what I wanted. In which one would be lost that feeling and there were some stones on the track that complicated me. I lost a tenths, I was not going to reach to pass. It is a clue where the engine is fundamental and we knew it would happen.”
Already with the mind in the race and with the weakness of his Alpine, the chances of going forward are not great. However, the Argentine is not delivered: “There are always alternatives, I saw Zandvoor as something difficult and, in the end, I should have added. Here many things can happen, we both start in the back hill.
