The same things we've done the past couple of seasons. We've worked on the engine and clutch. We'll try and pick up the performance and consistency of the car and go back out there.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Unfortunately we don't have all the bits and pieces on the car that we had hoped to have by this stage so we've got to make as good a job as we can with what we have and we feel we are doing well with that at the moment.
We go through the whole season working on next season's car and developing the car and making sure we fit in the car and all that sort of stuff. And we obviously give ideas of what we would hope next year's car would have even if it's small things like buttons on the steering wheel and different positions and whatever.
Whatever you do, do it with all your might. Work at it, early and late, in season and out of season, not leaving a stone unturned, and never deferring for a single hour that which can be done just as well now.
If I test the car for a year I can be quite competitive the next season.
My goal is always to improve what has been done the previous season and also collectively seek to do better than the year past.
One of my biggest problems this season was with the clutch at the start of the race. I hate to risk the car.
I'm really hands-on. My team brings in elements, but, every season, it's kind of a personal struggle to find the balance and to see how far I want to push the elements.
I believe I've accomplished my goals of trying to get better every year, and a little bit of that, a little bit of luck, a little bit of everything just falls in place, and you end up on top.
If you have the right horses and the right team, that's the way to succeed. But you have to work, and you have to improve. Every year, you must get better.
I come to spring training and just try to do my job, try to do the best I can. That's all any player can do.
