The safe

Because he was not taking any great risk, he remained at the start then conservative and took the rain tires. Normally, he would have immediately opted for a slick, but this time he was safe, he said. "Today was the wrong choice.

"Normally I am very free and the way he drives, but today I was held back a bit, I did not want to hurt me more. I was very nervous and tense. I had my eyes really always on the dry line. It was hard work, but it paid from. collapsed a few drivers and I passed when it was needed. The race was tough, but it was good. Thanks to all the team and to my family. You have given me in my career, all helped very much and me there helped out where I am now. "A huge thanks, Stoner said at the close.
