The Spaniard has seamlessly fit in his new team, and is looking forward to continuing with them for the foreseeable future, something that looks for granted.
“Considering that I have another year left on my contract, I’m not in a hurry. But it’s true that right now I don’t see myself anywhere else but Ferrari in the medium or long term.
“I am happy here, I enjoy it a lot and I go home after every race with a smile on my face and a sense of pride for being a Ferrari driver.
“And if you add good results to that, I don’t think I’ll be better off than at Ferrari anywhere. I am happy to be here.
“I had quite high expectations, because I like to set the bar as high as possible to try my best to meet it. With a high target, you push yourself more during the season.
“I can’t say if I’ve met them all or not, but I knew it would be a season of adaptation, hard, especially at the beginning, and the most important thing was to finish the year stronger than I started it, with a good progression. And I have more than achieved that.”
