The championship is won for Antonio, and we need to play a clever race. “I will definitely help him if I can and more importantly, help the team with the Teams’ Championship. The Mahindra Racing driver was just 0.033 seconds away from securing a spot in Super Pole with the German close by in eighth – relief for da Costa who progressed in sixth.
