We’ve had a very decent weekend up until now – it’s been a positive day today and the car feels better than yesterday. I lost a bit of time in the last sector, but nothing would’ve changed result wise, so we can be satisfied with our performance today. I’m really looking forward to tomorrow – we will fight like we always do and I hope we can end the season with a good result to thank all the fans who are constantly supporting the team and that got us here to Abu Dhabi.

I was looking very strong on my last qualifying lap – I matched Kamui through the first two sectors but I made a mistake going into Turn 17; I was actually a second quicker than my previous lap at that point. I’m pleased because I know that if I hadn’t made that mistake I would’ve been matching my teammate, but obviously I’m disappointed because I could’ve done better. But overall it’s been a positive day. This morning in FP3 we started to push and I had some good performance runs. I was pretty happy with my Prime tyre run but my Option run was quite messy and I didn’t get the most out of the tyres. I feel comfortable and I just need to keep a cool head and enjoy my first ever Formula 1 race tomorrow. We will all do our best as we want to show all the fans out there how much their support means to us.
