It would have
been good to have been celebrating a victory in Montmeló but in the
end it was just the icing on the cake that was missing after a
spectacular Grand Prix - both on the track as well, above all, in the
crowd. From the first day at the circuit fans were encouraging me like
they do every year and the truth is that you feel indebted to them. The
warmth we received in the home races is something that cannot be
described. I made a good start and I think until towards the end of the
race we had a fast pace. The truth is that we have to improve that final
stretch of a race because Jorge was able to keep up with me and
managed to get into the lead. As I told you I was very pleased with the
performance in Montmeló in spite of not having won.
Obviously
it would have been great being able to celebrate with all of you that
were cheering me on to a win in Barcelona, but I will just have to be
content with the positive side, I picked up valuable points in the fight
for the title. You know that we were testing yesterday at the same
circuit and we tried the new front tyre that we will be supplied with as
obligatory starting at Silverstone. We were lucky enough to be able to
complete the scheduled tests because it did not rain. We tried different
settings with the new tyre and the truth is that it took us a bit of
time to find the setup that will allow us to get a fast pace on the
track.
We understand that the aim is for safety to be improved
with this new regulation but we do not think that things it is fair for
all the constructors. Obviously it does not affect everybody to the same
extent. It is taking a long time for us to adapt to it. Even so we will
carry on fighting to be as fast as possible on the track and to put in
some good races. I will tell how my week has gone next Monday.
