What would you be if not a racing driver?

​

An athlete, probably a footballer.

 

Do you have any pre-race superstitions?

 

I used too, they weren’t working as well so I stopped.

​

What is your favourite racing circuit?

​

Bathurst, Silverstone and Le Mans!

 

Who do you admire the most?

​

This might sound a bit funny but Christian Ronaldo, he’s been at the top of his game for many many years, one of ‘the’ best football players, I admire him a lot.

​

Favourite food?

​

Traditional Portuguese.

​

Which other series would you like to race in?

 

Very happy with what I’m doing and very happy to be doing the Le Mans 24 Hours for the second time!

​

What road car do you drive?

 

Don’t laugh… a Jeep Wrangler, like in all the American movies… and a normal BMW wagon (diesel!).

 

Most memorable racing moment?

 

Luckily I’ve had quite a lot of really memorable races in my career, picking just one is very difficult!  At the beginning of the year I did the Bathurst 12 Hours, I had an amazing 4 hour stint, and my win at Long Beach in this year’s Pirelli World Challenge, I love street courses, that was really memorable!  

​

Do you have any tattoo's, if so what and where (be honest!)?

 

No, none!
