Question: Romain, you will race with Renault for the rest of the season. How does it feel to have this opportunity?
Romain Grosjean: Of course I’m very excited and I want to thank the team for giving me this chance. I started dreaming about being a Formula One driver when I was seven or eight years -old when I was watching the battles between Prost and Senna on television so to make my debut in Valencia really is a dream come true.
Question: Does it feel special to drive for the only French team on the grid?
Romain Grosjean: My goal has always been to become a Formula One driver and to do that with a French team makes it even more special. Renault have supported me since 2006 and it was only with their help that I could afford to continue racing. There is maybe a bit more attention because people have been waiting for a French driver in a Renault, but I will do my best to show that they were right to believe in me.
Question: What are you hopes for the weekend?
Romain Grosjean: I’ve only driven the R29 in straight-line testing so my first race will be a learning experience. It’s difficult to set myself an objective so my first priority will be to get comfortable with the car, build my confidence over the weekend and do the best job I can for the team.
