But the frustration was all the more important after the mechanical problem that nailed the McLaren on the spot in the last lap, and the one that cost his race to Carlos Sainz.
"Let's start with the positive," launches Andreas Seidl, director of the team. "After a difficult Friday and Saturday, we could not hope for the pace we showed in the race, and the performance the team and Lando managed to show was impressive."
"After avoiding the problems of turn 1, which came out fifth, we controlled the race, which is encouraging, and it is now important to study our race and understand where that rhythm came from in order to reproduce it. "
Reliability, however, was lacking in McLaren: "The negative is the two dropouts, two technical problems, which is obviously very disappointing, we will have to analyze this with our Renault colleagues to understand in detail what happened." We have lost a great opportunity to score points but we are already turning to Monza. "
Seidl does not forget to greet the memory of Anthoine Hubert, who died on Saturday during the F2 race: "The last word finally goes to Anthoine and to her memory, it's never easy to accept such a loss."
"It was a tough 24 hours for the motorsport family and at McLaren we once again offer our deepest condolences to Anthoine's family, friends and colleagues, and our best wishes go to Juan Manuel ( Correa, injured in the accident) for his convalescence. "
