Hi John! Do you think that is esential for a young driver to have sponsorship/financial support?

I think in 2012 it's an obligation for drive in motorsport, you can drive very fast but as you haven't money you can't drive, in the external appearance the people do not realize but motorsport it's a real business. You made the jump directly to GP3 without racing in Formula Renault or Formula 3, normally the race driver yes, has that affected for this season? I admit, I have a really atypical race career, in 2012 i just misses up the story to follow the ideal path, i come from Peugeot cup, and Clio Cup, drive a single seater the gp3 car was a very very big challenge, in the first session in the pre season test i was at 9sec from the best time, i have finish the 2 days testing at 1.8sec. After 6 days testing and 2 race I begging to understand the car. Every session in the car i learn new things, and Im always faster i will continued in this way! Valencia is the third race to GP3. In the two first races, you were faster in the sprint races What is your objective for the rest of races, the points? As you looking my result for the beginning of my career in single seater, 2 meeting, 4 race and 4 times to the finish line with 2 times P13. i think is not so bad as you look my experience, Im the driver with the least experience on the grid. The point what i will work it's my qualifying that is very difficult to use the grip of new tyres for a rookies, during the race my lap time is good, it's my best point in Gp3 i manage very good the degradation of the tyres with a good qualifying i hope a top 12, and of course during the season i hope the points Your team mate, Pl Kiss, got him first winner in Mnaco; do you think that you have possibilities to get any win? Really for the moment no, Tamas have a lot of experience it's a very fast driver, i learn a lot with him but i say you every test, every session i'm always faster the last test i was at 0.8 of tamas Im in the good way!

What is your goal in this season? For begin found good sponsors it's a lot of stress for me and my father after every race battle again for the next race, Im from Belgium it's a little country and it's difficult to found here. My objective it's continued to learn, progress a maximum, David Hayle the boss of the team are very happy of my beginning, i hope finish all race take experience and as i continued in this way finish in the point it's a possibility. In the long term, where do you see? Will you continue in GP3 at 2013? I say you that of the end of the season after my result, but the new car for 2013 in gp3 air to be very fine and faster than this year, that can be a good challenge, but of course as i found the sponsors i will continued in single seater !
