Pierre Gasly is determined to put in a good performance next weekend in Belgium. French Alpine driver Gasly was not satisfied with his qualifying and in the race on Sunday, the driver was finished. There was no A523 in Q3 and no A523 managed to complete the race either. Gasly is eager for revenge and looks ahead to the Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps.

"It's impossible to exactly know how the race would have unfolded, but I'm confident we had the potential to be fighting the Astons for the points as a minimum. Of course, we need to qualify better, higher up the grid, but I do hope we can have a stronger outing in Spa this weekend," Gasly told his team's preview.

"As a team, it's important we stick together, keep our heads down and keep working hard to bring better results. We have an upgrade this weekend and hopefully, that will all go to plan and bring some additional performance to the car which we need now," said the 27-year-old Frenchman.

"It's another Sprint weekend, which brings more opportunities to score points. We will target a solid Practice session before we go into Qualifying on Friday night. I'm feeling even more determined for a strong outcome from the weekend ahead of the summer break," concluded the French Alpine driver.
