behind both car cars catch deserved few fighting finishing happened happy keeps laps last perfect possible race team unlucky
If Fernando keeps finishing behind us it is not possible to catch him any more, but we will do everything we can as a team to keep fighting and we were very unlucky today. We had a perfect race and it was unfortunate for the team what happened in the last few laps because we could have had a one-two and we deserved it. I was happy with the car but we deserved to have both cars on the podium.

I knew they would stop before me and I had to push to gain time on them, ... With seven laps to go I went as quickly as I could.

That is not the way to become champion. I will just have try my best and drive as fast as I can. There is nothing I can do about it.
bit car create drive fantastic fast good justice looks seen stir tracks until
I have only seen illustrations of the new livery until now but they do it no justice. It looks fantastic and should create a bit of a stir when we drive it on tracks around the world. If we can make the car as fast as it looks then we will be in good shape.

I'm a bit disappointed with the engine failure which stopped my first practice session prematurely, ... However we managed to get in some running in the second practice and there is still plenty of time left tomorrow morning.

I missed it and I guess he ran a little wider and hit it so it was unfortunate for him and the team, but in the end I don't think it would have made any difference to the championship.

I haven't changed my driving at all. You just drive the car as fast as you can.
