“The most important thing for me is to enjoy it. I love having new driving challenges. Obviously these cars are very different from what I’m used to. They are much heavier, with much lower power and most importantly, without generating downforce. They have a serial gearbox where you have to play with the pedals too, so there is a lot to learn in a short amount of time. But he’s excited about this new challenge and I’m not approaching it as a guest appearance. I want to be competitive, although I know it will take time.”said the British driver.
