the opportunity to groped more overtakings, but I managed to get to the
finish and not lose positions. For tomorrow I'm optimistic seen great
improvements. "

aspire to the podium without problems and instead another driver has
crashed into my car and then I could not fight. Unfortunately these
things can happen on track, tomorrow is another day and I will make my
best as usual. "
