Formule 1: Problemen overschaduwen ware vorm: "Extreme teleurstelling"

Door Edwin Schimmel27 maart 2013 · 16:17 uur1 min lezen

Het Sahara Force India F1 team is van mening dat de problemen die het team ondervond met de wielbouten tijdens de pitstop de ware vorm overschaduwde tijdens de tweede ronde van het kampioenschap. Zowel Paul di Resta als Adrian Sutil moesten noodgedwongen opgeven tijdens de Grand Prix van Maleisie vanwege de problemen met de nieuwe wielbouten. De snelheid die beide echter lieten zien met de VJM06 stelde teambaas Vijay Mallya echter zeer tevreden.

"Het is meer dan diepe teleurstelling, het is extreme teleurstelling", aldus de flamboyante teambaas. "De wagens waren snel en competitief, we raceten comfortabel tegen de Mercedes, we waren sneller dan McLaren en sneller dan Lotus denk ik. Het zag er dus goed uit tot de problemen met de wielbouten."
