"Through sector one, the Esses, there’s basically no braking and you’re just carrying lots of speed, like 200km/h plus, with lots of G-force. My neck is definitely very sore right now! "For tomorrow I’ll get more comfortable in the car, and then I can start looking more at how I compare to other drivers."
