“I was really committed to take the lead and I knew it was the key today to be in the front. Being in the lead on lap one was the key to the win.“Then, as soon as I started to push I saw that the gap was always the same. But I knew that I had some margin to slowly make the gap bigger and bigger.“I knew, like in Indonesia, that winning the race by seven tenths or three seconds was the same, so seven tenths was enough.

“It doesn’t matter whether I finish, I just had to win. That corner is a bit complicated. It was just racing.”
