TCR World and life

13 painful is to lose the championship when the title is within grasp. I remember that losing the WTCC title two years ago resulted in the bitterest period of my life. Luckily, joining Hyundai and BRC helped me to get over it. I found myself in a new environment and I had to settle into it. Gabriele had already been my teammate at Honda and he helped me to find my bearings and so I was more than happy to support him in his 2018 title bid. And now this success pays me back for all my efforts. And I was really moved when Gabriele called me on the radio after the chequered flag, telling that he was even happier than when he won last year.”
