Tommaso Volpe, managing director and team principal, Nissan Formula E Team, left frustrated after a difficult weekend in Sao Paulo:

"We’re frustrated with the result this weekend as we believed we could have had a strong race."

#FormulaE
Volpe: "Our pace looked good in practice, unfortunately we missed out on the Duels in qualifying in a really tight session, before the incidents and subsequent retirements for both Norman and Sacha meant our day finished early."

#Nissan #FormulaE
Volpe: "Now we have to analyze the work we’ve done over the last six races to prepare for the double header in Berlin. There’s been a lot of positives this season, but this race showed some of our weaknesses, so it’s clear where we have to focus."

#Nissan #FormulaE
Volpe: "Our target is still to be competitive and challenge at the front and we’ll look to bounce back next month."

Motorsport Italy - Andrew Shovlin, track technical director at Mercedes, admitted the team understood before arriving in Bahrain that they had to change concepts on the W14.
This confession came when Wolff has long since declared that the W14 will be revised, indeed revolutionized, over the next few weeks.

This, however, continues to cause a stir because it is the result of completely incorrect evaluations of a team that in the last 9 years has brought home as many as 15 world titles out of the 16 available from 2014 to 2021.

Mario Isola (Pirelli): We’ve made the same tyre choice as we did back in 2019 for the Australian Grand Prix. Following a two-year absence from the calendar due to the Covid pandemic, we went for a gap in the nominated compounds last year: selecting the C2, C3 and then the....
Isola: [....] softest C5 compound. That race was a one-stopper won by Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, with all the teams using the hard and the medium tyre, while the soft was just used for qualifying.
Isola: This weekend, the teams will have the C2, C3, and C4 at their disposal, which means that they have more options for the race in terms of strategy: on paper at least. We’re expecting a high degree of track evolution throughout the weekend, as is normally the case in...

Magnussen: [....] I was a child back then. It’s basically a third of my life since then and a lot of stuff has happened since. It was a very intense weekend because having your first Formula 1 race weekend in itself is a big thing, a great experience on its own.
