deserve deserves hard lose next rather sure time win year
I would rather win it than lose the championship but they deserve it this year. Definitely, he deserves it and next year I will try to give him a hard time and for sure he will try to do the same for me.
next year
The Renault was too quick, our congratulations to them and next year we try again.
both car hopefully last nice quick quite race sure win year
It is going to be a nice race for both teams, I think. Last year our car was pretty quick there and I quite like the circuit, so for sure we will try to win the race and hopefully we can win the championship, too, for the team,
again deserves lost next points whoever year
He deserves it -- whoever has the most points deserves it. We lost this year but we will try again next year.
years race track
Where I went off, you can get back on the track by going through the support race pitlane, but you have to go through a gate. I know this as I did the same thing in 2001 and the gate was open that year. Somebody closed it this time. Next year, I'll make sure it's open again.
years race missing
When I did some Nascar races this year I noticed that I was increasingly missing the racing side, to race against each other, because in rallying you really race against the clock.
came car compliments laps next quick quicker year
The car wasn't quick enough. It got quicker and quicker and at the end was perfect. Unfortunately it came about 40 laps too late. The Renault was too quick so all the compliments to them and next year we try again.
gain knew laps push quickly seven stop time
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.
best drive fast
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.
bit engine failure however left plenty practice running second session stopped time tomorrow
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.
difference guess hit missed ran wider
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.
car changed drive driving fast
I haven't changed my driving at all. You just drive the car as fast as you can.
consider everybody fantastic great relationship team winning
I'm winning races, I'm still challenging for the world championships, the team is fantastic and I have a great relationship with everybody here - so why would I want to even consider changing?
