Q:
Now you've been preparing in Maldives, what have you been doing there?
FA:
Nothing! We relaxed a little bit, we did a lot of preparation for this race. You know the temperature there was quite similar to here so we brought the two trainers with us and we worked very hard, but at the same time we relaxed a little bit. We did different things: snorkelling, beach volley, the kind of things that you can't do in Europe at the moment and it was quite fun.
Q:
And there was poor old Rubens going round and round Valencia, working hard while everyone else was on holiday! Is that true?
RB:
Huh, huh. So I deserve to win, thank you!
Q:
It's interesting, you were the only top race driver from the top four or five teams who was actually testing.
RB: I was probably the only one, if you think about it. There were several other teams, and although they had the test drivers there, of the ones who were racing, I was probably the only one. Tough business. I wish I could have been in the Maldives!
Q:
But after this one, you're going back to Brazil.
RB:
Yeah, yeah. So they can go back and test – for me.
