“It can be very frustrating. The biggest reason is being stuck behind slower cars, but the challenges far out-weigh that. It is possible to overtake; probably the easiest place is the exit of the tunnel down into the chicane, but even that is reasonably easy to defend – you just go to the inside line.

“You really need the guy in front to make a mistake, which when you know you have a faster car can be annoying. The simple answer is to make sure you qualify near the front!

“You have to be brave. You have to attack the brakes and the fast corners – the whole time you must be very aggressive and drive close to the walls. It is not so much about the set-up, balance and so on – it is all about attacking and being bold.”
