That radio sounded great at the end of that session to us, to hear you say good findings.
It sounds like it's been a really positive day.
It really has, yeah. Thank the Lord.
It started out, it wasn't so positive. I would say P1 was a bit of a mess.
And this is a circuit where you have to have mega confidence on the brakes,
and I had some problems with the brakes.
Every track I'm going to is the first time driving a Ferrari at that circuit,
so acclimatising to that is not easy.
And then we made some changes going into P2,
and the brakes finally were working perfect,
and I was able to really make some big advantage in terms of gaining on the brakes.
So, really happy to see the progress,
and it just goes to show the direction we've been going as a team.
Really, really grateful for everyone's patience and everyone pushing so hard,
because we're really starting to see the progress come through.
How big is this? Is it an overstatement to say this is big for you and the team,
to understand that actually what you're thinking does now correlate in the car,
and you can start to move forward?
Or is it too big to say that it's been a big day for you and the team today?
I wouldn't say it's been, no, it's just practice day,
so I would say let's not go too far on that.
I just want to say that I really am grateful for everyone continuing to push,
the support I've been getting back from everyone at the factory,
everyone here, their patience, their support every weekend,
just lifting me up, the guys in the garage, all of our marketing team,
they're really making a big difference.
And then Tifosi, we've been beaming from the energy from the Tifosi in the last race,
so hoping to take that energy that they gave us all the way through the rest of the season.
