Bottas explains lack of pace in Azerbaijan

Bottas outlined some of the reasons he believes were behind his poor Azerbaijan Grand Prix performance, with the Cadillac driver pointing to possible damper degradation during the race. He said this was giving the car increasingly poor ride characteristics as the event went on.

The Finn struggled throughout the Baku weekend and was largely near the bottom of the timesheets. His lack of pace was especially noticeable compared with team-mate Sergio Perez, who was much more competitive.
