This is a new opportunity for Romain Grosjean to prove that he is a young prodigy in motorsports. But rather than in GP2, it’s in Formula 1 where he needs to prove himself if he wishes to continue the adventure in 2010. Because his place is far from assured alongside Robert Kubica in the Renault team.<\/p>\n
His mission this weekend (if he chooses to accept it!) will be to perform as well as his teammate, Fernando Alonso, and possibly even score points. In any case, he has prepared as best as he could on the simulator to get a feel for the magnificent Interlagos track.<\/p>\n
Romain, after five races, how do you find Formula One?<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab Formula One still brings me as much joy as my first race in Valencia last August. It remains my dream, and every time I get in the car, I have an immense amount of fun. \u00bb<\/p>\n
Interlagos will be a new experience for you. Are you looking forward to racing in Brazil?<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab Yes, I can’t wait to be in Brazil because I don’t want this season to end. Interlagos may not be the easiest circuit of the season, but it is a legendary track. Driving there will be a great experience for me. \u00bb<\/p>\n
How do you prepare to approach this circuit that is new to you?<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab There are two aspects regarding my preparation for the Brazilian Grand Prix. First, there is the physical preparation. Interlagos is a counter-clockwise circuit and it can be quite demanding for the drivers. So, I will train physically, especially the neck. Then, I prepare to get to know the track. I have never driven at Interlagos, so I watch as many onboard videos as possible, learning the circuit layout. I will go to Interlagos as soon as I arrive in Sao Paulo at the beginning of the week because learning the track is very important. \u00bb<\/p>\n
What are your goals for this weekend?<\/b><\/p>\n
\u00ab My goals are to continue gaining experience in Formula One, to progress and to get as close as possible to Fernando. I hope to have a smooth race and try to aim for points for the team. I will do my best, also hoping that the car will be competitive at Interlagos.<\/p>\n
