Formula 4 UAE - Abu Dhabi
Yas Marina CIrcuit
Sean Babington (ENG), Energy Dubai F4 Racing Team (#4): “It's a massive relief to get that win, especially after being hounded for the whole of the race; you can see the Motopark guys and Fabio [Scherer] all the time in the mirror behind.
Into the very slow corners everyone closes up so much and the gap you think you have is suddenly gone, so the pressure to hold on at the front was hard to manage.
And the level of competition is getting harder and harder so the whole team is ecstatic to get this win. We've worked really really hard all year so a massive thanks to the team for making the right setup changes to get me onto the top step."
Fabio Scherer (SWI), Rasgaira Motorsports (#13): “We improved a lot from qualifying and I saw I had the pace so I was just relaxed and I think that was the key to the race.
Towards the end I saw Jonathan [Aberdein] coming after me and I pushed a bit more but never I thought I was needing to go to the limit.
I like the reverse grid races because you need to be good in the battles, not just with speed, so it's really nice to be at the end of the weekend in the best position."
Richard Cregan, Team Principal of Rasgaira Motorsports: "It's a great day for us as Rasgaira, we've been on the podium many times before but it was our first win and nothing is as sweet as a win.
Fabio did a great job and was very professional, and you could see his experience coming through as well, having done the German championship last year.
David [Malukas] also did well with two fourth places, and I think the partnership again with US Racing from Germany works exceptionally well so for us.
As a whole, it shows we have the right resources to help these young drivers improve their racing experience and that this is the championship for young drivers who want to go to Europe and do well."
