MOTORSPORT: Di Grassi delight at Spa

11:00am Thursday 2nd September 2010

Virgin driver Lucas di Grassi spoke of his satisfaction after a 17th-place finish in the Belgium Grand Prix at Spa Francor-champs.

“It was a very good race overall. I’m very pleased with my drive and the team did a great job,” said di Grassi.

“They were very difficult driving conditions due to the weather changing so much from dry to half wet to full wet during a whole race.

“The team did a great job calling me at the correct moment and choosing the correct tyres.

“From my point of view it is very clear that Heikki Kovalainen cut the chicane at turn five and we have brought this to the attention of the race officials.”

Di Grassi’s teammate Timo Glock was 18th.
