After the Catalan GP, Mir was more cautious in his assessment, admitting that while the chassis offers benefits in some areas, it also takes away from his natural strengths.
“It’s not the one thing that you put on the track and straight away you feel better. You have to work a bit and trust a bit on it, and [spend some] time testing,” said the 2020 champion. “It’s not something that comes to me very naturally.
“I don’t feel so good with that at the moment. I think we penalised a little bit on my strong point, which is braking in the second part, and now I cannot do it anymore with this chassis.
“Then, the natural turn looks like it’s a bit better. But normally, I make the turn before. Now, ok, there I turn more, but I want to turn here. We are just trying to understand [it].”
