00:00So we're here in the amazing racetrack for the Daytona 24 Hours.
00:04Just last weekend we were racing in Mexico with Formula E, where we had a great result for the team with Porsche.
00:12Now a completely different car, different environment, sharing the car with other drivers.
00:16There's 60 cars on track.
00:19It was pretty quick to get back in rhythm with the car.
00:22It's just a different way to go racing, you know, with this endurance racing world.
00:26The compromise in your seat, in your setup, with your teammates helping each other out.
00:30You know, when you get the big prize at the end, it's amazing.
00:35So it's my first endurance race.
00:37I drove the car one month or two months ago here as well in Daytona.
00:41It was the first time on track.
00:42I think the biggest difference you could get compared to a Formula E car.
00:47I'm just trying to adapt, to learn.
00:49Jimmy is a very experienced teammate, so I'm sure that I can learn a lot from him.
00:55I'm just here for the team, trying to soak up every experience I can get here.
01:00Obviously I'm looking forward to the race.
