There was nothing I could do about the lack of straightline speed, but I did make life too easy for Esteban (Ocon) when he overtook me and then I accidentally pressed the pit speed limiter twice. That button has given me similar problems in the past, but at the end of the day, I know it&#8217;s there and I am the one driving the car.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The other teams have different solutions and we might have to look at that as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think we had the outright pace to win today if I&#8217;d been allowed to break free in the beginning without safety cars, but it wasn&#8217;t to be. I am my own harshest critic, and today wasn&#8217;t good enough.
