Forgetting about this race

1024 683 davide

This race is for sure something to forget. The 6 hours of Shanghai was pretty bad since the beginning when we had problems with one tire for some debris on track. So we had to stop even if it was not possible in that moment, but rules are rules so we had a penalty too.…

We are still on run for the Championship. The weekend in Japan was not too bad for #71 but it’s still not enough having a look at the Fia Wec Classifications. We started the race with Sam, we were behind the #51 and the Aston Martin at the beginning. The car was pretty good, but…

I’m very happy about my stint, I was pretty fast overtaking the…

Racing is a complicated sport at times. We brought a top car to the track here in Germany and were running times that had us near the fastest qualifying times. The set-up was perfect for the wet conditions at the beginning of qualifying but towards the end, conditions changed and left us with little time…
