I have a special feeling for this circuit. It is a fantastic track and it has always been good to me.
brand car consistent easy good hoping january mechanical news nice runs seem strong taking test
I was hoping that it would feel like the R25 to drive, because that was such a nice car for the drivers. The good news is that it does. It is easy to drive, the long runs seem consistent and we didn't have any mechanical problems. This is only the first January test with a brand new car. Taking that into account, I think we are in a strong position.
