Well Adam, huge congratulations. I think your full first full race win since 2022. Isn't that? Oh, that's a long time ago. That's a long time ago. Look at that, John Clalland, you bought me the luck. Just talk me through that. Incredible conditions at the start. It was uh it wasn't easy, you know. We've not had that much running on these cars in the wet, so it was a bit of uh let's hope it's alright. Um to be honest, we didn't really change much at all after yesterday's uh drive running. So I think that kind of shows now we've got the car in a pretty good window. Um but yeah, overall, just you know what a start. You know, what a start today. P1, P2, kind of clean plateau racing on the top. And the car has finally got into a position where we feel like you know we we know what it's gonna do, we know how to we know where to push it, we know what it's gonna do over the curbs. It just felt mega, yeah. Really, really happy. Tricky conditions at the start, but you eked out a very nice lead, uh which you earned and you worked hard for it, and then the safety car came out. What was going through your mind? It's it's never easy, it's never easy, but yeah, at the start it was it was quite damp, but uh you know I was quite lucky because I think Dan and Gordon were having a battle, which meant I could just focus on me, just put in the perfect laps. They're never perfect, but the best laps I could, and then uh at the same time I could then save my boost. So I was able to the end of the race, you know, I had 14 laps left of boost so I could boost to the end, and um yeah, that was a big help because Dan looked quite quick towards the end, so I was happy I had them in my pocket. Yeah, I think he played a part in uh in the restart, didn't he? In just uh creating that little bit of annoyance for Gordon. Okay, uh yeah, to be honest, I wasn't looking behind. I don't so I'm not too sure what happened. For me, it was just try and jump Dan off the off the line, and um you know we we had spoken on the radio about what was going to happen, but we yeah, we just said let's work together and let's bring it home P1, P2, and we did it. Just finally crossing the line, knowing that you'd got the win in the bag and you'd worked hard and earned it. What what were your thoughts? The the old boy can still do it. At the ripe old age of 38, 37, 37, he's uh he's still got a few tricks up his sleeve, and hopefully he can do a few more. I know Alan Hyde asked you if you'd had a good night's sleep last night, because you've you've got the family keeping you awake, haven't you? Yeah, but so I don't want to bore you, but my average is about six hours when I've got three kids, and last night I did eight and a half, so I feel like a new man today. So uh but yeah, everything's just fallen into place, you know, from FP1 yesterday all the way through to today, it's just felt nice. Everyone's working really well together. It's just lovely, thank you, James. So yeah, just really happy. Absolutely great drive, really well earned win. Congratulations, Adam. Thank you, mate, thank you very much.
