I think, as I said, I didn’t expect this coming into the weekend. We did a lot of work, back in the simulator but also here to get the set up right. I could just about see them in the end thanks to the Safety Car! Honestly, our pace was quite good, particularly in the second phase of the stint. We’ve just got to keep pushing and keep pushing and hopefully we’ll be in the fight with these guys. The guys are the front are a little bit quick for us at the moment, I was giving it everything, but we’re getting closer. That’s something I’m so proud of and I remain inspired by my crew so thank you, to everyone who’s here in Montreal and back at the factory. It’s been such a battle this year with the car as a Team, but we continue to stay vigilant, focussed and never giving up.

It’s quite overwhelming honestly, to get this third place.
