Pierre Gasly is hoping for a better weekend in Monaco than the Frenchman has experienced so far in his career. Gasly will take to the streets for the first time in his Formula One career and hopes that it would mark a change in form.
"Truth is, I’ve never been particularly lucky racing at Monaco in the junior formulas.
"I’ve always had a crazy time there, like there’s a black cat on my case. So I hope it’s going to change this year, as it’s a track I really like.
"In qualifying, it really is the most exciting place of the year, because to drive at 300 per hour, ten centimetres off the walls all the way round, while chasing performance, as you keep pushing a little bit more and a little bit more is really something.
"No errors are permitted, because if you brake one metre later, you go one metre too deep or wide and straight away, that’s you in the wall. It’s really exciting."
Gasly has been the better of the two Toro Rosso drivers this season and will be hoping that form continues after an early end to his Spanish Grand Prix last time out.
