00:32 - Well of course I was very happy, a bit shocked as well.
00:35 I didn't expect that, but yeah I'm very happy
00:38 with this opportunity of course.
00:40 I have to say a big thanks to Red Bull

01:16 It was an amazing race, a lot of pressure from behind,

01:40 is consistency of race performance.
01:43 In adversity like we saw in Abu Dhabi,
01:45 cut to a one stop strategy and make it work.

01:50 find racing lines that you would normally never take
01:54 and make it work.
01:55 So he's brave and he's intelligent.
01:57 Bring those two together and you have something superhuman.

02:19 So yeah, insane, intense, crazy of course.
02:24 And just season in general, but also yesterday,
02:29 the race in general.
