Bortoleto prévoit un début de Grand Prix du Canada difficile pour Audi

Gabriel Bortoleto s'attend à perdre des positions au départ du Grand Prix du Canada de Formule 1, à moins de réussir une excellente impulsion alors que ses rivaux peinent. Le pilote Audi a exprimé ses inquiétudes après une séance de qualification difficile à Montréal.

Bortoleto s'est qualifié 13e pour la course, tandis que son coéquipier Nico Hulkenberg a pris la 11e place. Les deux pilotes avaient perdu quatre places au départ de l'épreuve sprint précédente, une tendance que Bortoleto a attribuée aux performances du groupe propulseur de l'écurie. Il a décrit ces problèmes comme étant liés à la maniabilité et à la puissance plutôt qu'au châssis.
