Sam, congratulations, a P6 finish kicking off uh a cold and chilly brands hatch.

SPEAKER_01 0:06

Yeah, and greasy, oh my god. Like the first few laps is just so so greasy. Um you just had to do the best you could and manage where you were and weren't the optimum lap or the best lap, it were the one who made the least mistakes with it. Um driving under is better than driving over and having a shun. So yeah, I think I think we did alright. Um we definitely didn't do the best we could, but we did definitely alright. Um and like I say, we're doing what we said we'd do and getting to that top six, uh top ten.

SPEAKER_00 0:37

Absolutely, and a solid performance from you as well. I mean, in terms of your drive, I mean the machinery underneath you you're obviously happy with because you you were going for it, but your performance there, very good, it's excellent. Thanks.

Um yeah, I mean the car we we came here with a a different setup from um from Donnington, which I was a bit scared about, um, and it it really didn't work for us in free practice one, but we're learning how to drive it and figure out how to make it work again for us, um, and it's all about looking after them tyres. You know, Donington we had no tyre left at all on both fronts, there was down to cords, and we were having a real issue. We came here in in the qualifying race, not bad, as bad, but still it's the same sort of issue. Um and now we're actually we've made some more changes and and we're we're stepping in the right direction.

Around here as well this weekend, it's interesting choice of tire and use of boost, isn't it? I mean there's a there's a nice little balancing act to do there.

SPEAKER_01 1:35

Yeah, it's it's it's everything like there's so there's so much that goes on, boost, this toker boost, the uh I've forgotten what they call it now, the over boost strategy, uh the actual boost strategy, um tire strategy, there's so many different bits of strategies that come into it. Um and yeah, driving it all as well is and then sorry in greasy conditions, I was very busy. Absolutely. Well it was a really great drive, well done Sam, nice P6. Cheers, thank you.
