Pierre Gasly on his Red Bull stint: "There was no support from anywhere, in a very big team which is very much supporting Max - for good reasons . I'm starting with a fresh engineer coming from Formula E who didn't have experience in F1. I wasn't really given the tools to really perform."
Full quote:
"We switch back to chat mode – and get into his unfortunately short stint at Red Bull. "I'm not going to lie, it was sad," he says. "2019, my second year in Formula 1 – there was no support from anywhere, in a very big team which is very much supporting Max [Verstappen] – for good reasons, because he's put on the results.
"But I'm starting with a fresh engineer coming from Formula E who didn't have experience in F1. So it was a strange dynamic. I wasn't really given the tools to really perform. I tried to fight my own way because I wanted, and at the end of the day I'm there to, perform. They were not happy, but I'm not happy too because I could see I couldn't show my potential."
Gasly was demoted back to Toro Rosso after around six months of racing. "It almost felt like a relief," he says."
