An “incredible weekend”
Max examines his Sunday after triumphing over Ferrari & co “The first lap was pretty hectic, I tried to stay out of trouble. When we managed to get back on track, after the Safety Car, the car was running on the tracks today. I was able to overtake in the right places e we were also able to manage the tyres. That's why we reassembled, and then once we got to the front I had to manage. The whole weekend was incredible, I could never have imagined it. We want more like this, we have to keep working this way. We'll see what we can do in Zandvoort, today I enjoy this day".
