Ha sido un día increíble al poder estar de nuevo con la pole. Fue un comienzo complicado en la carrera sprint, en la que las cosas no salieron como queríamos, pero estoy muy contento con la remontada y con la clasificación. Hubo demasiada emoción en la última vuelta de la Q3. Estaba bastante estresado y esperando a que todos terminasen sus vueltas. Espero que mañana sea una salida mágica y estaría bien no perder ninguna posición. Hasta ahora el fin de semana ha sido muy complicado, pero estamos intentando maximizar el rendimiento
