14 - PHILO PAZ ARMAND
“Today’s race has been long and extremely demanding. Our strategy featured the use of soft tyres in the last part of the race and I tried to push until I saw the checkered flag. We are improving compared to the last race so I think that today’s result is a positive one for me”. Final Position: P19Position on Starting Grid: P22
15 - LUCA GHIOTTO“My start was good, I lost some positions at the first corner and in turn 2 and 3. I set a good pace but it was difficult to navigate traffic in order to take full advantage of the speed potential. There was some real chaos and the Hungaroring is certainly not the easiest one for passing. Unfortunately, after the pit-stop I couldn’t find the right pace with the softer compound tires and so I tried not to make mistakes until the finish”.
