“Qualifying was looking to be going okay; on my final lap I was picking up pace however the tyres overheated after a big slide – so the performance fell off a cliff, meaning that I was nowhere in the second half of that lap. If not for that there was definitely a good few tenths of pace in the offing. Let’s see what we can do tomorrow.”
