“I simply wish to try to develop that undertaking naturally as a result of that’s undoubtedly one thing that I get pleasure from rather a lot. And out of doors of Method 1 for the long run as effectively as a result of I like being in F1 as a driver, I do not assume I’d ever come again in F1 in a administration function for example like that.
“However in a unique class, extra like endurance-style, sure I do see that occuring and creating that chance for younger drivers that wouldn’t have the funds or the probabilities of entering into an actual racing automotive to try to stimulate that from the simulator world as effectively.”
