Logan Sargeant says he has been getting “much closer” to the level he wants to be driving at as his rookie season has progressed at Williams.
The American has yet to score a point in his first season in Formula 1, although he was one position away in 11th at Silverstone, and has seen team-mate Alex Albon impress with three top 10 results so far this year. While Sargeant admits his been an inconsistent rookie season to date, he says he has been seeing steps forward as he understands the details of where he need to improve.
“Ups and downs,” Sargeant said. “Not where I want to be, however over the last few rounds I’m much closer to where I want to be. I’ve seen really good progression as of late, and that’s the most important thing. So if I keep building on that all should be good. But definitely ups and downs, tough moments, good ones – I’ve enjoyed every moment I’ve had in the car.
“(I’ve learned) in terms of extracting everything from the car, whether that’s in quali trim or race trim, just the way the car needs to be driven, starting to drive it like that. There’s so many different little things, but all just effectively impacts the end result, so moving towards that step by step in many different ways.”
Elaborating on the driving changes he feels he needs to make, Sargeant said there hasn’t been one glaring weakness that he’s been struggling with since stepping up to F1, but little gains across a wider area that are required.
