Jacob Greaves, team-manager :“Fourth place was a great result, especially considering the amount of work that we had to put in to get the car built and prepared in time for the race. We know that we can improve and refine all aspects of our performance, the combination of Nissan engines, Zytek chassis and Dunlop Tyres is one that gives us optimism for the rest of the season.”
Christian Zugel : “I had an awesome race, I really enjoyed myself, even though I had a small strain in my neck on my second stint. This was probably as a result of a combination of the downforce of the car and the really bumpy track. I must thank the team, they have have spent many, many hours building and preparing the car in a such a short space of time."
Ricardo Gonzalez : "Sebring was a very hard race as usual, we did expect that but it does not make it any easier. The team gave us a really good car that ran flawlessly all week long. They worked really hard and got very little sleep along the way. All of the drivers really appreciate this effort, so we wish we had finished on the podium as a thank you."
Elton Julian : “I am happy with the pace of the car and I think in the opening stint we proved that we can be competitive with anyone in this strong field. The team did a great job all week and calmly got things in order for the race.... I think they have done this before! With the benefit of a test programme before our next race, we should be even better as a driving group and continue to get to know and understand each other and the car."
