There’s no doubt it would have been close and, unfortunately, with Brazil’s spin, we just didn’t have the time on track to push for long enough. After that, I just made sure I kept the pressure on Nico in the hope he’d make a mistake. I had one opportunity as we were coming up to pass Switzerland, but a bump at Westfield cost me that chance as the back-end of the car went out as I was alongside. Nico was ragged in some places and I caught the dirt on a couple of occasions, but I was just hoping for another shot to try and overtake.
Q:
Sum up your thoughts on the
Brands Hatch outing for yourself and the team?
RK:
Overall, it wasn’t a bad weekend of racing! It would have been great to finish off the season with a double win but, apart from finishing second in the feature, it was a near perfect performance from the team. I think everyone on the team was over the moon with our pole on Saturday and Sunday morning’s win, especially given we were back on home soil and giving the crowd something to cheer about. We’re already looking ahead to next season now!
Q:
On that point, do you think A1 Team Great Britain can carry its recent momentum into the 2007-08 A1GP World Cup of Motorsport?
RK:
We’re definitely a nation on the up in A1GP, so I see no reason why we can’t push on and be successful straight out of the blocks next season. We’ve always had to fight some issues, whether it’s sheer bad luck or something mechanical, but we’ve shown over the last three rounds of this season that, when everything’s in place, we’re one of the teams to beat in A1GP. It’s been fantastic to be at the head of the pack scoring wins regularly, so I’m confident that Great Britain will be a title contender from the off next season.”
