No one of the best engineers in the world knows how to give an explanation. Here we tried something extreme at the level of set -up exactly as we were extreme in Canada. In Canada it worked, here it was how to shoot on the feet. If we had set up the structure of last year. Podium, but having attempted something extreme is the only positive thing about the weekend “.
