“Thank you Oscar, we did a great job as a team. That was the result we wanted today. Oscar deserved a win, but we did what had to be done. So I thank him and the team.”
“Did I have the speed to pass the Oscar on the track? If we look at it only in terms of speed, it’s difficult. It was a little bumpy; I was getting a little closer and retreating, then I was approaching again.”
“The dirty weather wastes a lot than the lap time, I was a little faster but I couldn’t pass at that time. I was fine though.”
“It’s hard to manage this situation in such a sprint race, to know how hard you will push. But we applied it well.”
