"It’s really special, this would’ve been my first here in 1991 but🅺 Nigel [Mansell] was w🍃aving and forgot to change down [gear]. Max is on it, we have all learnt from that, until you cross the line you can’t count it.
“It has been an amazing journey, my dream was always to be an e๊ngineer in motoracing. When I got my first job and salary, that was the big moment. Everything else has 🙈been a bonus.”
