“I had a wind at my back and I lost control in turn 4. My DRS didn’t work all the time, it was complicated. But we managed to come back and do our race. It was a complicated race. A difficult beginning but a beautiful end. I tried to stay focused. It’s never nice to have DRS problems but I’m very happy and also for Pérez it’s a very good team result. Our car has always been good on soft tires but also on mediums, it has been. »
