P1 | Adrian Huertas | Aruba.it Racing WorldSSP Team
“Our good form continues with this pole position! We are working really hard. Even during the holiday period we worked hard and we found something again. It’s good to start from pole position and we want to continue like this because the points have added up in the championship. During Free Practice sessions it doesn’t mean much to be first or to set a fast lap time because sometimes you are working on different things. I think working on your programme is more valuable than setting a fast time. We did our job today and we are ready for tomorrow. I think the high temperatures will be something to watch but I think we can manage it. Our strategy will be to try to win tomorrow.”
