Gabriel Bortoleto believes Audi would be fighting at the front of the Formula 1 field if it were not for the power unit deficit the German manufacturer is facing in its first season in the championship.
The Brazilian is convinced Audi's chassis is capable of much more than its current results suggest, with the team's lack of straight-line speed proving to be its biggest limitation.
That assessment comes despite Audi introducing an upgraded power unit via its ADUO (Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities) system at the previous round in Barcelona.
