changes fast few major notice problems second section small tried
Nothing really to report. We're going as fast as we can and had no major problems. We tried a few small changes to the set-up on the second section but didn't notice any significant improvement.
deserve good japan last main points three top track trying win
It's important not just for me, but the whole team. A lot of us have had a lot of sleepless nights. Everybody's been flat-out to get back on track again. We deserve more than this after what started in Japan last year. We're all trying everything to get a very good result. The win is the main thing, but points and the top three is the goal.
bad best choice current road
It was a bad decision. I had re-cut slicks, and it wasn't the best choice for the current road conditions.
maybe points scholars-and-scholarship taking
It was better this afternoon. I think maybe I'm taking it too carefully, but I really want points here.
attack excuses strategy
There won't be any excuses in Argentina. I'm going to attack from the outset. You can't have any other strategy for this rally.
far proper
They are too far away now to give it a proper fight.
good hard today tried
I tried very hard today and it doesn't look very good actually,
morning yesterday
It's the same story as yesterday morning and Sebastien did really well,
season
It's too bad. I didn't want to end the season like this, but that's just how it is sometimes,
believe change incredible luck
I still can't really believe it. It's incredible really. I have no luck here in Monte Carlo. It must change soon.
energy job maybe
If I had been in the job 22 years doing the same thing, maybe I would need a change, to do something different, to put energy into something else.
bit good judge pace problems pushing quite seems split system time
I've got a good feeling, ... No problems at all. I've been pushing a little bit but, when I get a good split time through, I back off. The system seems to be working and I think I'm able to judge the pace quite well.
car closer confidence
The car is getting better and better and I'm much closer to the confidence I had yesterday,
beef deserved final finished mind reasons understand won
The final leaderboard showed that I won the event, but in my mind I finished second, ... Sebastien deserved the win, but I can understand the reasons why he did what he did. But now we all have to keep going - it's what Beef would have wanted.
