De Vries says he 'spent the whole night awake' ahead of his F1 debut in the ItalianGP. 'But perhaps it helped me. I couldn't think and I just had to get on with the job.'
"I didn't really have much time to think because everything was so rushed. I had a very bad sleep, it went from excitement into nerves and I didn't dare even look into my sleep tracking because basically I spent the whole night awake."My start wasn't great but it was enough to maintain position, and I think it was key for me to get into a rhythm in the beginning and not lose position [because] then your tyres are dirty and you're always on the back foot.
"That's why I was really happy with our strategy and how we managed that. And actually the pace was really good, the car was great and we made a small adjustment from stint one to stint two."Again, I know that we had a little bit of help from outside with grid penalties and all that. But hey, no one take these points away from us.
"So, with the kind of flap adjust for run two I felt like the balance was in a better window and that helped me to be cleaner and safer on track limits."
