High fuel, cold tyres, turbulence, dirty track and 20 F1 drivers wanting to make up places always makes things interesting on lap 1 👀 . Other than floor damage from debris on lap 2 I got through pretty cleanly. Cheers Austin, you are always good fun. On to Mexico 🥊 🇲🇽

Boom, P20-P9 and 2 more points on the board! Good overtakes, tyre management, communication from the pits, strategy and pit stop. With the pace our car had in the race this was the maximum we could do. Very happy with my race. I’m fighting 👊
