Angelo Rosin - Team Principal
"We had a positive start at Imola, but we have to stay focused because we saw how close our competitors are and how things can shake up in an instant. In addition, we will dedicate ourselves to showing that all our drivers can be contenders right from the start, improving and perfecting what we saw in round 1. Our mission is to provide every driver with the best possible chance to impress, and that's our goal for Misano as well."
