Gabriel Bortoleto
Audi · P14 · 10 p
The Audi car currently sits in the back half (1.72 s/lap off the fastest car in race pace). Bortoleto qualifies closer to the front than the races show (quali 1.69, race 1.89 s/lap). Form has been stable over the last five races. Tyre management is a weakness: Bortoleto's stints lose more pace per lap than the field on the same compound.
Bortoleto has 10 points to Hülkenberg's 7. In qualifying Bortoleto leads the intra-team qualifying battle 9–7, by 0.080 s/lap on average in Bortoleto's favour. In races where both were classified: 6–4 to Hülkenberg, and in race pace Hülkenberg is 0.022 s/lap quicker over the season. Current form (weighted to recent races) gives Hülkenberg an edge of 0.07 s/lap. Tyre management is worse than the team-mate's (+0.020 against -0.027 s/lap stint slope versus the field).
