I want to see and analyze the data to see what is happening

“It’s been a strange test. We’re trying a new aero kit, a new chassis, a new engine, but the new engine wasn’t what we expected. The engine doesn’t feel like we got when we tried on it in Catalunya and Misano, I get a different feeling.”

“I would like to look at the data and analyze what is happening. I think that will allow us to make course corrections. He has run the new chassis twice before testing the aero package.”

“We will look at the data and analyze which option is better. As for the rear wing, I’m surprised there are areas that can be improved with such a small part.”
