"I'm sorry for what was a great opportunity lost, but I can't help but be pleased with how things were going up until that moment. Öncü was very strong on the braking at the bottom of the downhill, where he had passed me earlier, but since I had led almost the entire race, I didn’t have a clear reference for what his limit was. I wanted to try and respond to his overtake, but in reality, that wasn’t the right place or the right moment to try. It’s a shame, but racing is also like this. The important thing is that we finally managed to have a weekend where we were competitive from day one, so we have to build from here and keep going this way."
