PT:
With me sitting out those eight weeks, other teams were testing and we were not, so I have some miles left and Oriol has some miles left as well, because he's only just started testing. I think that can help us through the rest of the year as most of the other teams have finished with their testing now. We have some testing left but, right now, there's really no opportunity to test because we're racing every week for the next five out of six weeks.
Q:
Is that sort of schedule something you enjoy personally, being a 'racer'?
PT:
For sure, I like to go racing and I don't like it when the races are spread out, like they were at the start of the year with a bunch of time off. Now is the meat of the season, the time when we can race every week, which is just fun.
Q:
And how much are you looking forward to coming back to Europe, with the races at Zolder and Assen towards the end of the summer?
PT:
I'm excited about it. I think it's a great opportunity for the series. It's going to be a great atmosphere too, especially now that we've got more European drivers. I think it's going to add to the crowd - and, obviously, it's not going to hurt having Robert right up there in the championship right now. That's really going to help the draw in terms of how many people come to the race.
