Explaining the aforementioned radio m🧸essage, he said: “It felt veryꦍ twitchy and the tyres weren’t working so it was like I was on ice.

“I♌t was very, very bad꧒. There’s really no word to describe how difficult it was.

“I think that from my side, I couldn’t get the temperature into𒅌 the intermediate tyres, so I was just tiptoeing.

“I think our crossover was good, it’s ju🙈st that I lost ground to everyone when I had to stop, so we were at a bit of a disadvantage there and it just made it a little bit trickier, but no mistakes, kept it on track.”
