Rosberg:
On the verge of solving problems |
| |
|
For the AT&T
Williams team the last few Grand Prix have seen the team drop down the
Constructors Championship points table. The team saw their season start
successfully with a third place in Australia, but since then the team has
struggled to get the best out of the 2008 FW30.
For team driver Nico Rosberg
he has seen his position in the drivers title drop downward to the point
that he is now fourteenth after having not score any points in the last six
races.
This has seen the
team trying to explain their poor performances but after
recent work by the team Nico Rosberg is confident that the team is close to
sorting out their problems that have seen the team struggle.
Development
work by the team has seen them come across an explanation for their
problems. The team had run with new parts for the FW30 at the last Grand
Prix in Hungary and these developments have confirmed that they are now
heading in the right direction to sort out their lack of performance from
the FW30.
In a recent interview reported on autosport.com Nico said:
"We've got the bottom of one of the problems, yes. We have
an explanation for it, especially when you consider that in the winter we
were level with Red Bull and Toyota, and it's just gone down.
"But we know where one of the main areas is and actually I have learned
something in Hungary, which was just a small step in another direction, to
give us an idea if it's the right thing. I ran it in qualifying and it's
quite positive."
As to how long it will take for the team to turn their season around Nico
felt that it was not going to happen over night and that the current test
ban is certainly not helping.
Nico added:
"The problem is in F1 it takes time. You have to design
it, then you have to produce it, test it, put it on the car. We won't see it
in the immediate future - it's going to take a few weeks." |
