Pierre Gasly is hoping to score his first points for Red Bull in Bahrain this weekend after a disappointing debut in Melbourne.
Gasly’s team-mate Max Verstappen impressed with a third-place finish in the season-opening Australian GP but the Frenchman missed out on the points as he came in 11th.
The 23-year-old, who made the step up from sister-team Toro Rosso to replace Daniel Ricciardo, is hopeful he can put in a better display in Bahrain this weekend. “I’m really looking forward to going back, especially after a tricky weekend in Melbourne last time out,” he said, as reported by GP Blog.

“We’ve seen our car is competitive and I like the track in Bahrain so I can’t wait to jump back in the car and get to work.” Gasly managed his best result to date at last year’s Bahrain GP as he came in fourth.
