"It was a good race for me," he says Albon. “We started well and from then on it was basically about taking advantage of the mistakes and problems of others. I wasn’t fast enough to overtake Perez, so all I had to do was wait for any competitors ’problems and that eventually happened. Third place was a good result. ”
Thai racer is aware that he could have reached the other podiums in Formula 1 only because he is Perez just before the end he suffered a breakdown in his car and was forced to resign. "He had a great race too, so I'm not entirely happy," he says. "I'd say I'm 95 percent satisfied."
