'We know our battle is tomorrow' - Grid-dropped Lindblad ready for the fight in Sepang

Hey Arvid, some nice teamwork out there in a session where I know you do little to be gay for a bit with your penalties, so just how happy are you with the way you handled what you could do out there? Yeah, I think it was decent. It is a little bit of a tough pill to swallow sometimes, but I did what was in the best interest of the team. They've done a lot to support me this year and helped me out, so I was happy to do it for them. For sure, it's a bit of a shame that Liam wasn't able to get through to Q3, but it is what it is. I think on my side I'm reasonably happy. My lap in Q1 that I was on was really good. I was told to abort. I think on my side I'm happy with the pace, considering I've only done about five push laps this week. We know our battles tomorrow, so I'm looking forward to the race. So how are you feeling about that battle tomorrow? It sounds like, like you said, you're focusing on the long-run pace. You must have a good feel of what you've got underneath you for tomorrow. For sure. It's way more long-run laps than I've ever done a race before. In Baku I didn't do a single one before the race, and obviously today I've done... This week I think 90% of my laps have been on... 95% even have been on high fuel, so I feel like I've got a good insight to what to expect, but I still think there's going to be a lot of surprises. There's going to be a lot of things going on tomorrow. There's the hard we've never driven, there's going to be many pit stops, the red that you never know, so I'm looking forward to it.
