Gutiérrez is eager to start the season

After several years of absence, Mexico will be represented this year by two drivers: Sergio Pérez, who joined McLaren this winter, and Esteban Gutiérrez, who will make his grand debut in the discipline with the Sauber team.

After a mandatory learning period, he now feels at ease and ready to tackle his first race weekend: « The pre-season tests have been good. I’ve been working for three years to get myself in this position, so everything I’ve done so far has been quite natural. I want to give the best possible technical feedback to the engineers, and concentration is key in all of this. »

Gutiérrez is really eager to start the season and experience strong emotions for his first Grand Prix in Melbourne, Australia next month: « At this time, almost at the end of the first tests of the season, I think everyone wants to start racing and is hungry for competition. At least, that’s what I strongly feel. I can’t wait any longer for the adrenaline, my first qualifying session, and my first start! »

However, he does not lose sight of his objectives: « I need to stay consistent and try to score points. I want to be there if the opportunity arises. »
