"I didn't think it was great - I just tried to clean up bits and pieces where I was untidy before. I have to say thanks to the engineers, they gave me some info on bits I was doing wrong. It was really hard mentally for me this weekend. After delivering so much in Estonia, the goalposts moved suddenly and you just want to deliver a win." |
