Valtteri Bottas has revealed how his improved aggression has led to his more competitive performances in 2019.
Bottas failed to win a single race in 2018 but has already won twice this year, backed up with two second place finishes and a bonus point for fastest lap in Melbourne, resulting in the Finn leading the championship after four rounds.
Bottas said: “I think this year has been different to last year as I’ve been maybe a bit more direct and more maybe let’s say aggressive in how big changes we’ve been making in the practice and what kind of set-up directions we’ve been taking.
“That’s why you gain confidence and knowing what you exactly you need from the car and how you feel the car will be quicker for you.
“We’ve had pretty clear set-up directions in the first three race weekends, especially Melbourne and the last race in terms of where we’ve ended up and been quite happy with the set-up. I think I’ve definitely improved in that sense.”
