"This is not so bad, in the faster sections the car feels alright but in the twistier stuff the car doesn't feel too good. I think it is a set-up issue but I don't know for sure."

"A good run, what can I say? It is a faster road. I don't think the issues are set-up, it is something I need to work out with the diffs I guess."

What can I say? It's tight and not so easy. Not really satisfied, it is much more satisfying if the feeling is good.

Obviously it is a very different story. A lot more grip, I'm sure there is a lot of tyre management to do. But on this one we had a good run.

"It is very strange, we had a front-right puncture. I was quite stupid, I carried on for four or 5ks before changing to stop it. It was still on, it had just delaminated."
