Checo said that there was a big difference compared to the cars in front and that he had driven at the limit, between 80 and 100%, on each lap. He pointed out that the team needed a fast car and stated that he was optimistic about next year: with a competitive car, they could put pressure on the leading rivals. He also maintained that the team was improving in the operational aspect, although the gap was still very large, and urged them to keep working during the last races. #SingaporeGP https://t.co/glJ2HxAM7L #F1 #ChecoPerez #Carrera (translated)
