The Argentine faces the last part of the season with the certainty that the A525 car does not have the performance to fight consistently for the points. Locating a Sunday between the first 10 seems to be, so far, a matter more related to chance and to take advantage of other mistakes on the track.
However, the goal of the Argentine It is clear: to compete equally with his fellow Gasly to ensure his place for the 2026 season.
