Grosjean annoyed with yet another "tough afternoon"

Romain Grosjean was left frustrated with another poor finish at the Mexican Grand Prix, as he was knocked out in Q1 and finished only 17th at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The Frenchman has scored just one points finish in 12 races, coming home seventh in the crazy race at the German Grand Prix in July.

Grosjean qualified in 18th, ahead of only the Williams duo, but managed to finish behind George Russell in another frustrating afternoon. 

The former Lotus driver is perhaps lucky to have a seat on the grid next season, as he has only scored eight points this season and has been off the pace in many races. 

He will drive for Haas once again in 2020, his fifth season with the American team. He said after the race: “It was a tough afternoon.

"Nothing was working very well, we just have to hope that the next race is better. We need to keep looking to find out what’s going on with the car. Here, it hasn’t felt right since FP3, and the race confirmed that.”
