We’ll take things as they come, but I believe we have a strong package, as the team is highly competitive and had some brilliant results last year. I think it will be a great combination, and hopefully a winning one. I would also like to extend a massive thank you to all my partners who have helped me get on the grid this season. I can’t wait to get started.”

We’re looking forward to working with him and seeing what we can achieve together.”
