"This being a track I haven't been to before, makes it very exciting. I am excited to kick off the season here, and of course, I have now done many laps of testing at Brands Hatch on the simulator, along with certain preparations with the team to maximise the performance going into the weekend. So far, I really like the layout, I think it is a very old-school track with no run-off. The elevation change in some sections of the track makes it extra tricky, and that is what I like, it is very rewarding when you get it right, but alternatively, when you get it wrong it is the end of the session. Really looking forward to this one and kicking off the GT World Challenge season here."
