From there he was able to run in the draft and get some crucial restrictor-plate experience.
"It was the logical thing to do," Villeneuve said. "Our car was set up for qualifying and we didn't know how it was going to handle. Starting from the front or the back doesn't really change anything. I had more to learn from the back, anyway.
"Also, it was to show respect to all the guys fighting for the Chase. I was thankful for them allowing me to race here, which is really special to me. It was just a way of saying 'thank you'."
Спасибо, sasa!
Ну не такая уж бурная фантазия у меня, Sudden.
Просто Жак сказал это по приличней.
P.S. Он сделал все правильно. Это поможет ему в ево карьере тут. Респект других гонщиков тут не маловажный фактор.
