In FRANCE, no one wanted to hear Valtteri BOTTAS

Valtteri Bottas was repeatedly angry at the race for the French GP that Mercedes had chosen the wrong strategy, but his complaints were overheard in the pits.

The Finn demanded to go on in the middle of the race two-stop strategy, and yet they are at "Silver" insisted on one-stop tactics. As an explanation Ross Brown, it is normal for a team to stick to a plan that was set before the start of the race.

Even before it is Max Verstappen the second time he rolled into the pits, he did Bottas he announced on the radio that he had nothing more to do with the hard compound tires and demanded transition to plan B, which would mean an additional stop and the possibility of an attack in the last part of the race. His demands at Mercedes they did not take it into account, which put the Finn in the role of victim again after the race.

"It simply came to our notice then. Last race weekend he drove very well, but in the end he was a victim of Mercedes ’strategy. As a racer with a lot of experience, he saw how things would turn out, but in the end, it is the team that decides how the strategy will change throughout the race. Otherwise, things would be too chaotic, ” he added Brown.
