[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]1) Welcome to the first PRL preseason race at Hungary. How do you like this track?[/font]
I really enjoy this track. I tend to do better at tracks like Hungary with lots of tight corners and on top of that there always seem to be pretty fun battles here.
[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]2) How did your trial runs go last week? What did you learn from that experience?[/font]
I had a lot of fun last week and really enjoyed the qualifying. It was a really good test. I think everyone had some small issues/mistakes, but hopefully most of those offset and I think it should make for some extremely competitive racing in both D1 & D2. Biggest takeaway was the importance of consistency. I struggle with this at times. The event really forced me to concentrate & make sure I gave myself a chance to improve my times on every lap.
[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]3) Rumors are Carlos Sainz will be moving to Renault and STR will have Honda engines for next season while McLaren switches to Renault Power. This is a lot to take in, but what are your opinions of this?[/font]
[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Extremely excited about this move. We all know McLaren produced an excellent chasis in 2017, but Honda really let them down. I'm hoping McLaren can keep up the good work in 2018 and with a Renault engines I think we could have a big 4 instead of big 3. Would be great to see Renault's engine make improvements on power so we have 4 really capable teams at the top battling for podiums next season. [/font]
