Pastor Maldonado
The Question: Pastor, your run of bad luck seems to have continued – now five retirements from six races. What’s the team saying to you and what is your mindset going into this weekend?
What Pastor said:
PM: Yeah we have been very unlucky, especially because we have been having a few different problems during the races, but on the other hand we have a competitive car, which gives us the opportunity to try again and do our best. Let’s re-try again this weekend. This should be a good track, a good opportunity for us. I’ve been always fighting for the points before the problems we had, so there is not any point to don’t do it from now to the rest of the season.
What he might have meant to say:
PM: The team are telling me that if I bend the car again they’ll string me up at the back of the garage by my underwear and they’ll let the lanky English kid race instead. By contrast, my mindset is that I can break the car as much as I like. Anyway they’re doing a pretty good of breaking it for me.
