Abu Dhabi GP: The story behind my weekend
“My first F1 Monaco Grand Prix in the books, and I’m fairly happy with my race – even if wasn’t quite the casino jackpot we were hoping for!
“I took advantage at the start and picked up a position which I managed to maintain. A few retirements along the way and it was P15.
“I felt I managed my tyres quite well, and kept it out of the wall for and hour and a half, which is no easy feat around Monaco in an F1 car.
“I think the only mistake I made was forgetting to put the drinks tube in my mouth before the start. I finished with a very full camel back in the car and was very thirsty when I reached the chequered flag!
“Time for a reset now, and a week and a half to prepare for Baku ā another street race I really enjoy.”
