“It’s not the end of the world, but there’s tonnes of time just sitting there that I’m not extracting. Losing two-tenths just in the last sector, three tenths in the first sector, a tenth in the middle sector. It’s just not good enough."

“I’ve just got to keep on taking a deep breath. I know that the fans aren’t happy. I’m sure the team are not happy. I know the bosses are not happy. And I’m not happy with my results."

“But all I can continue to do is continue to try believe in myself, stay positive and keep working at it. And that’s what I’m trying to do.”
