George Russell admitted that he was “lost and confused” in qualifying for the Formula 1 Spanish GP after a change of set-up before the session failed to pay off.Russell also struggled with bouncing in Barcelona’s high-speed corners which made hisW14 even trickier to drive on the limit, with the Briton reporting a belief that there was something wrong with his tyres early in Q1.
“The car wasn't feeling okay every single lap of the session,” said Russell when asked by Autosport about the car's behaviour. “We made some small changes from FP3 to quali, and the car was bouncing a lot in the high-speed corners. “The corners that were easily flat in practice, I couldn't take flat. I couldn't get the tyres working, it kind of all went wrong. From the first lap in Q1, I knew we weren't going to be having a good day. It was strange.
“We should be capitalising on conditions like that and we usually do. As a team, we're usually very good when it's challenging, but today, especially on my side it just wasn't there.”
