“Singapore’s meant to be the toughest race, that’s the one where everyone’s like, ‘once you do Singapore, it gets easier from there.’ It didn’t feel like it today! Looking at a lot of other guys, I think it was tough for all of us," the rookie said after racing in the brutal heat and humidity of Qatar.
"Obviously, it's pretty extreme. In a normal situation, you get to the straight, you sort of get a bunch of cold air coming through the helmets. But here you're getting such hot air that it's just obviously tough to breathe. And I think, as I said, when you are when you're fighting the car a lot, you're obviously having to do so much, for me, I was really struggling throughout the whole race, honestly, to stay on track."
As you see from the cool-down room, he was hardly the only one to struggle.
