"Franco, you did a fantastic race. This is one of the toughest races you have ever done and you were there, a second from the points. We win together, we lose together. I think we had a car this weekend that if we got everything right, there were points available. But I can tell you one thing, I'm really excited by these last six races together. There's a fast car and so much potential."
