Q: (Stefano Mancini – La Stampa) Lewis, do you think that the late
decision of the stewards about your overtaking of the safety car helped
you to come second after the drive-through?
LH: I don’t know really. I haven’t watched the race but as far as
I was concerned, I had passed the safety car, at least that’s how I saw
it. I thought I had passed the safety car one line and in the end this is
the way the race went. I think my general pace was quite a bit better than
a lot of the people behind me. We were competitive from the beginning. I
think that’s the reason why we ended up second.
Q: (Stephane Barbé – L’Equipe) Can you comment a little bit on
this penalty with the safety car? Did you see the car coming out of the
pits? Did you hesitate to overtake it?
LH: No, when I came down the straight, I was accelerating, I didn’t
see the safety car coming out and then as I came round turn one, we know
that obviously the safety car was out but I was able to push until the
safety car two line, I think, and at that point I saw the safety car
alongside me and I thought I was passed, so when I noticed it, he was
already behind and so I continued. |
