F1 | Toro Rosso, Tost on Red Bull's Gasly failure: “He wasn't comfortable in the car”

Interviewed by Auto Hebdo magazine, Franz Tost spoke about Pierre Gasly's failure in Red Bull, underlining how the Frenchman was unable to create the right feeling with the RB15. In fact, despite the team's efforts, the Frenchman was never able to make the most of the potential of the car designed by Adrian Newey, an aspect which significantly penalized his performance on the track.

An insurmountable obstacle, especially from mid-season onwards, which led to his relegation to Toro Rosso. Alex Albon, we remember, took his place in Red Bull starting from the Belgian Grand Prix and will probably keep that seat in 2020 too.

Unfortunately in a world like Formula 1 you need a steely mind, especially if you share the garage with Max Verstappen."
