“He knows what he needs to do. It’s an amazing opportunity for him and he’s in a very good position too, because being like I was with Seb at the end, I had a multi-world champion next to me and, of course for us being young, it’s a great opportunity to show what you can do and learn from the best.” 

The Monegasque driver concluded, “So yes: just to enjoy his time there and not put too much pressure on himself.”
