00:00I'm really excited to get going into this season, obviously there's been so much hard work going into producing this car.
00:06The power unit's been in production for a number of years now, and obviously this car, everybody at Brackley's been working so hard over the last 12 to 14 months to prepare it, and just really excited to go racing now.
00:21I think you need to go in with an open mind because we've been driving a lot on the simulator but until you drive the car properly at different circuits understanding what the challenges are understanding the new power unit with the overtake mode the boost button we obviously got an opportunity in Silverstone in Barcelona to drive the car and the new power unit I think for all of the teams are just so fast and when you use that boost button down the straight and you got the full 350 kilowatts from the engine the thing flies so that's really good.
00:51really cool and with the active aerodynamics it just looks I don't know it looks racy and I like the look of the cars a bit smaller they feel lighter they feel more nimble through the corners so for us it's more enjoyable to drive and hopefully it's going to produce better racing for everyone to enjoy at home.
