REMY GARDNER
“Today was a tough day for us. FP3 did not go the way we wanted and the changes we made to the bike yesterday were not perfect. However, we went into qualifying with a slightly different setup, we had a better feeling and we were closer in terms of our pace. Tomorrow we hope to have fun, have a good time and finish the race. Thanks again to the team for the work that they did.”
