Q: Who is your favourite F1 Driver ever?
A: Because I started to watch F1 in 2009 (when I was 9, I do not have big legends on my list from the older times, my favs are current drivers) I like a lot of drivers to be honest. The one who I've cheered the most for is probably Sebastian Vettel, but I extremely like Hamilton, Max, Leclerc, and Ocon too. I also have a huge respect to Sainz and Hulkenberg, they are very nice people in my opinion.
Q: Which car is your favourite to drive?
A: I am happy to drive all of the cars with Williams and Renault as an exception. In F1 2018 Closed Beta, I enjoyed Mercedes and Sauber the most to be honest.
Q: Which was your favourite year in F1 and why?
A: Year 2012: It's very easy to answer. Championship was decided by 2 or 4 points, and in the first 6 races there was 6 different race winner drivers and 6 different teams. No word for it. 2017 was also exciting and 2018 looks MEGA too.
Q: What type of driving style do you think you have?
A: I am very concious, nearly never doing anything with high risk. I know I have the pace to overtake with strategy or during the many race laps we usually have. I am gentle with the tyres. I really like qualifying, I think I have an exceptional one-lap pace so a lot of times I do not even need to overtake because I am in the front.
Q: If you think there is something/anything that will give you an advantage over your competitors, what is it and how will you use it?
A: I will try to get a Fanatec setup as soon as possible to practice in the same conditions that we will have during the series. Not everybody will do that I guess. And my mental state, I rarely crack under preassure. And my qualy pace helps me to not get into trouble in the first few laps of any racing if there is any.
Q: What is your favourite wheel that you've driven with?
A: Fanatec wheel have been the best so far which we drove with during the Pro Draft. I have a cheaper wheel at home.
Q: Who is your toughest online opponent?
A: Brendon Leigh, no question.
Q: What is your favourite track on F1 2017?
A: Spa, China, Usa, Silverstone. I am sorry, but I can't say an order. BUT, any time a new game comes out my first meters are always at Spa, it has the most variety of corners so a good place to get to know setups and new handling model.
Q: Which driving conditions do you prefer, wet or dry?
A: DRY DRY DRY. I like when there is high grip and I can just stick my car in and attack every corner. I am no
