"Basically, a frustrating day. We were very fast in a relay, we faded a bit, the condition of the track was not great, we had pity and one of the cars in front of us, or just around us, and we would fall behind them and that would somehow put us back into play. It was one of those days when a small movement could blow us up two or three times. "
