"I believe, I don't know details, but probably same as Loubet had. But we had it just going into tire fitting. We had to take everything apart and fix it up, but at least we didn't retire completely. Our road position is not too bad at the moment." | ||||||

"At the moment for sure the conditions are helping. Beginning and end where it's dry it's definitely our benefit. We had quite a big noise from the exhaust from the start, but it's here so it's fine." | ||||||
