"For me personally, it was a tough race, but it is really an amazing circuit to drive.
“Everyone always thinks 'it's a very easy circuit because it's just a few straights and some chicanes', but actually it's just a very difficult, technical circuit.
"Basically it's just a street circuit, with a lot of consecutive combinations. You have to have a car that is good with braking, but also goes well over the kerbs. As a driver, you shouldn't always be too eager to want to brake a little later to gain time, because a good exit is also very important here.”
