Lucas Di Grassi: Homecoming Highlights and Heading South

I’m super happy that Mahindra scored points with Oliver at their home race in Hyderabad. After the support we received from the fans, it was nice to pay them back with something and give them a good show.

Both Oliver and I had great pace during the race and we improved greatly on our starting positions. It was just unfortunate that we both got pinged by track limits dropping us back some positions. I did what I could to help Oliver, which was important for the team.

We will look at what happened over at my side of the garage, but I think it is a great step forward that we had a strong pace in India and we will definitely carry that onto the next event in Cape Town.

Heading to South Africa, we will be racing on another new circuit, which will take some time to learn once again. However, we usually work really well at new track so fingers crossed Cape Town will be no different. It will also be great to explore the city during the weekend… I’m hoping to enjoy a braai on the beach or a trek up Table Mountain!

We can’t wait to get there and to hopefully build on what the team has started during the opening four races of Season 9.
