“I am one hundred percent concentrated on SEAT Sport and I want to learn as much as I can about the WTCC as quickly as possible. I want to be fighting for the top spot as soon as possible. I am aware it’s going to be really difficult, but that’s my goal. Racing in the WTCC will be a tough challenge, but all my life I have been ready for such challenges.“
