(GMM) Jacques Villeneuve is not enjoying a so-called 'honeymoon' period with new F1 employer Sauber.
The 1997 world champion, regularly outpaced by young Brazilian teammate Felipe Massa in testing, said bad weather has hampered winter running.
''So we didn't do enough (mileage),'' the 33-year-old - who memorably clashed with team management at BAR - said at his 'Newtown' restaurant in Montreal.
He also claimed Peter Sauber's squad is 'not used' to working with an experienced driver. ''We have to adapt our way of working better,'' Villeneuve admitted.
JV did, though, praise Sauber's prioritisation of budget. ''Unlike other teams,'' he said, ''every penny goes into how to make the car faster.''
