While his starts are more variable I’m not sure that’s a mental strength thing. I guess it could be but in Spa you could for example hear him complain about his lack if energy as the reason for why Oscar overtook him. He can’t acknowledge in the moment he made several mistakes. Which I don’t think is abnormal, but from the outside it looks as though if he can’t have that external cause for his problems, he spirals into performing worse than when he does have the external excuse.
Also he often chokes at the start of a race. He has lost many races simply because he lost places at the start of the race.
