I was able to put a good jump forward in competition, which is important, and then the race was good. Starting from the front is always difficult but a good experience, I was able to fall back a place but I’m still happy with that. I’m happy to share the podium with Jasper and Taylor and, yeah, overall, it was a really good day.”
