Joris Croezen, TGR Haas F1 Sim Racing Team driver, said: “After a strong first event, we’re focused on delivering consistent results and scoring solid points. We’ve had a month to prepare, with two more events ahead in May. It’s a busy period, but we’re ready to prove that Event 1 reflected our true place on the grid.”
Tamas Gál, TGR Haas F1 Sim Racing Team driver, said: “The objective for Event 2 is clear – to make a step forward in qualifying. I didn’t get a clean session in the first three races, and we know how much the final result depends on starting at the front. We’ve worked hard over the past few weeks, and now it’s about putting everything together. Every position on the grid has to be earned.”
