“It’s kind of overwhelming. To receive an award, any award, is always a major privilege , and holding this one, it reminds me of all the times I’ve been to the Autosport Awards before, even my first time. To see what a journey it’s been and see the number of people that have made it possible for me, makes me very proud.”
