I'm still buzzing from our P4 finish in Singapore last time out and it will give me a big BOOST in Malaysia, for sure! It was an amazing feeling to achieve my best F1 result up until now with the team, we worked very hard and we definitely deserved it! I've seen many videos on social media this past week reminding me about it and my favorite is the one where I cross the line and celebrate it over the radio with my race engineer… BOOMSHAKALAKA! And now I'm ready for Malaysia. I have good memories, especially of the 2015 race weekend as I performed my first comeback in F1 – I started from P15 and finished P8… The weather conditions in Sepang are always special. The rain showers are always close and it's not strange for the sun to be out one minute and then, all of a sudden, it starts to pour down with RAIN, especially in the afternoons! Having said that, it's never rained for me yet when racing there, maybe I will experience it this year?!

I am not worried, I am excited about making my DEBUT in Sepang this weekend. I have worked hard to prepare for this and to get to F1. I am very HAPPY to have this opportunity. I know it will be different to anything I've done before and the other drivers have been racing all season, so I will have a lot of things to get used to and LEARN about. It's a super challenge and I can't wait for it to start. I have raced in Sepang. It was last year, when I took pole position for the GP2 race, so clearly it's a track I like. It is very tough with the high level of humidity but I am well prepared physically.
