hungry . He is still like a young driver , always looking for victories and for improvement . He is always working . We are always one of the teams that leave the track later in the evening and arrive earlier in the morning . I like his work ethic and I feel really comfortable .

“ Of course , especially in the beginning , there was a bit of pressure , because I know how he wants to win and I didn ’ t want to make mistakes , I wanted to help the team as much as possible , but now I am getting used to that , and I feel much more comfortable and faster . I am helping the team more and it is a nice thing for me .”

CARLOS SAINZ , ACCIONA : “ Laia is a great talent . She has had a brilliant career on two-wheels , winning multiple world championships , and she is really brave for taking the challenge to transition to fourwheels , which is a completely different challenge that has taken her out of her comfort zone . She is willing to learn and she is improving really fast .

“ I think she has blossomed in Extreme E this year , because she is already among the fastest on the grid and she is still getting better . I already knew her from the Dakar , but it has been really nice to share this experience in Extreme E with her .”
