In qualifying it was finally enough for the 10th position. I missed Q3 and therefore the top 8 by two and a half tenths. The race started very promising. After my good start I was able to overtake Mike Rockenfeller and Timo Scheider. In the second lap I started to attack Oliver Jarvis. As I was already up the inside next to him, he turned into me. I could not avoid the collision. After this the race was over for me. The track rod was bent and the suspension damaged.

After the first pit stop I was struggling with a loose wheel nut and a loose wheel. So the last stint was not very pleasant. However, I am confident that we will reach our targets, namely a lot of points and some podium finishes. Perhaps we can already achieve that in Valencia.

Keep racing,
Maro.
