Mika Kallio – 13th in FP1

“Sometimes I hit the top part of the injured finger on the clutch and it hurts so bad, but the only thing I can do is grit my teeth and continue to fight on track. I didn’t take any painkillers and I don’t think I will need them for the rest of the weekend. For sure it is not simple to use the clutch like in the other races. Without this problem I could have been faster today as I wouldn’t need to take some time to evaluate the situation of the injury. I know there are some parts of the track where I can sensibly improve and tomorrow we should take a big step forward in the standing.”
