Senna Wants To Make Himself Indispensable To The Team

Bruno Senna sees a good chance to sit in 2013 in Williams - that he needed in the last four races but a few strong results.

Valtteri Bottas breathing down his neck, ones future is more uncertain: Nevertheless, Williams driver Bruno Senna quiet - the Brazilian knows that he is in for it now so pioneering phase must also put under inhibitory pressure and goes for the last four races accordingly to optimistic. "Now, if you start with the doubts, because the next year is not yet clear exactly blamed for thus to even more - then things are just worse," Senna said on the verge of a team event in England. "For me, the focus is now solely on it to make me until end of the season as indispensable as I possibly can."

Missing Time On Friday An Eyesore

First and foremost go to him this to be a lasting positive impression: "Only one thing to improve or get a good result because not enough is always about many aspects." Said the 29-year-old, who believed: "If you stuff more brings together and ultimately the performance, then the people also clear at some point that it really only takes a few things to make them fit. " Although Senna was not looking for excuses, that he is in some races this season but failed to sell value, and would be due to the fact that it compared to the competition in most cases the first free practice session on Friday lacked. This allowed all twelve times this year already Bottas take his FW34 - contractually, this was already fixed in such a way before Senna for Williams, so he had to swallow this bitter pill.

The team sees the true power

"I never thought that it would make my life so much harder to have to skip the first session ever - until that happens, you do not know how many problems that one prepares." As he had at his signing last winter, but had no choice, it makes no sense to get angry at this situation now. "I had to accept so - to drive for Williams, was for me a good option, so I have covered this risk," said Senna, with a view to a possible extension of the contract but the same time made it clear not accept such a disadvantage once again wish: "Surely I have become a different perspective when it comes to give away all my days off."

If an already missing a session is quite clear: "Yet another problem and then you have massive problems - then the weekend is actually running." After all, the teams internal recognition of its performance in this context, but he wanted to be sure. "They understand the impact that has had on some weekends at my performance. Just very the team knows how well I hit it in the race," hoped the Brazilian, who in the standings currently only seven points behind stable mate and Barcelona champion Pastor Maldonado is. By the end of this year is yet to surpass his goal.

The goal: to beat Maldonado

"If you have more points than your teammate, it makes the team, of course, difficult to seek someone else. But in F1 can always happen a lot," said the Williams driver was under no illusions about his situation. "We still have but four races and therefore there are still many points to award, of which I hope to bring some order to pastor or closer still to come before him." Another argument, which is why the traditional racing team also should continue to rely on him, delivered Senna then even. That Pirelli next year intend to back tires with a wider working range of the team to deliver, came to him and his riding style definitely.

"Next year we will have tires that can spin the pecking order again a little confused," he was sure. Pirelli will supply tires that would provide higher bandwidth. "Then you can come with different riding styles in the same lap time, because this year the tires were very tricky and only makes occasional tastes really very compatible." This is also the reason why would open up under two drivers in the same team as often great differences. "Only when the year progresses then, the difference is generally small and the constancy but larger, which is improving - but until then its really not been easy."
