Guanyu Zhou: I am determined to score points

The Alfa Romeo team is preparing for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and hopes to continue to earn points. In Bahrain, only Valtteri Bottas finished in the top ten, but in Jeddah Guanyu Zhou will also try.

Valttery Bottas: “We started the season well in Bahrain, earning points in the first race of the season. We were in the top five teams the whole distance, confirming the excellent work of our flying team throughout the weekend.

Nevertheless, as always, we have something to strive for. In preparation for the stage in Jeddah, we need to keep up the momentum and do everything we can to keep working no less efficiently.

Our colleagues at the team base in Hinwil are hard at work preparing technical innovations for the next stages of the season as we try to make further progress to achieve more good results for the team.

We have a fast car and we know that we are very capable of fighting with rivals. Let me repeat: from the start of the race weekend, attention to every nuance is essential to work effectively.”

Guanyu Zhou: “A strong start to the season put the whole team in a good mood, including me: I was happy to contribute to the common cause as I set the best lap of the race and took the price point away from our rivals.

Now we go to Saudi Arabia for the second leg of the championship and I am determined to open an account with the points earned. In Bahrain, the car’s behavior got better day by day and this suggests we are on the right track.

To continue progress, it is necessary to gradually add improvements and to constantly search. It is already clear that the rivalry promises to be very intense, but if we manage to get the most out of our car and the team works as efficiently as possible, I don’t see what is stopping us from pushing ourselves even higher. goals this weekend.”
