168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez has admitted he “explored” his Red Bull F1 car “a little too much” as he slumped to a disappo🥀inti🐽ng qualifying result at the Spanish Grand Prix.

Red Bull started the Barcelona weekend on the back foot, but 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen was only narrowly pipped to pole position by McLaren’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris. Perez, howeꦬver, could only take eighth in his Redꦅ Bull, some six tenths adrift of his teammate.

P8 will﷽ turn into 11tꦬh for Sunday’s grand prix once Perez has his three-place grid penalty applied for driving his car in an unsafe condition after crashing in Canada last time out.

“Unfortunately, my final sector was in Q3 a little bit too poor. I lost a bit too much compared to myself. I think we could have been a lot closer,” Pꦫerez explained.

“We only had one single♓ set, so that made things a little bi📖t tricky. The wind changed a bit. But overall, I think we've been a little bit too far [away] this weekend.

“We've been chasing the balance every now and then. But I feel like we've done some good steps, which made me feel a little bit more comfortable. Margins are so small. I think to really find those t𒁏hings, I needed the progression, and I didn't have that progression through the weekend.

"So we'll work on that, and hopefully t🐷omorrow we'll have a good race car. We have to work a lot on that as welꦗl. So we've compromised a little bit qualifying for hopefully a good tyre degradation.”

Perez, who reached Q3 for the first time in four races after suffering consecutive Q1 eliminations in Monaco and Canada, adde🦄d: “I think ๊we explored the car a lot. I think we struggled a lot more than we anticipated in Barcelona.

“Obviously the correlation sometimes can be good, sometimes not. I think tyre issues have been also a bit of a handout. So it's been quite hard to pick up a direction over the weekend, but I thin𝓰k we're just getting there.

“Hopefully tomorrow we are able to show some good race pace⭕ and turn the page quickly.”

Asked if he made a lot of changes to his car after Friday practice, Perez replied: “Yeah, we've been exploring the car🤪 quite a lot. A little bit too much.”

And Perez admitted he has “some work to do” to close the significant 🤪g🦄ap to teammate Verstappen.

“I t൩hink here it'🌸s been much more of a struggle than last year,” he said. “Because last year it was down to the conditions. It was damp and I went out in Q2.

“I think here it was more of a balance limitation that I struggled with. The gap to Max has been a little bit too far on the weekend. So we've got some work 🐬to do in that regard.”
