78 HIKARI OKUBO
“My goal at recent races was the podium, but the most important thing was to get points for the standings. We are sixth and that is positive. We are clear that we have to set a good time in qualifying to be able to do well in the races. If we achieve this, we will have more of a chance to be able to fight for the podium. As always, we will do our best from the first session of the weekend, to end the year in the best possible way.”
