FormulaDuudeTV got in touch with Lotus F1 Team driver Shaka for an exclusive interview at Sebring, host of the last round of FormulaDuude.

FDTV: How is FD season going for you?

Shaka: Well, it looks good. So far we got 10 races, I won half of it and tib got the other half, so I guess it'll be between us.

FDTV: What about your team? How are you feeling?

Shaka: It's a good atmosphere, but could be better. I miss Ross. Hugh did a decent job, but was a pain in the ass. Now it's up to Joel, who looks promising.

FDTV: Some guys at South Africa say you'd be better without him...

Shaka: We got to give him some slack, he didn't even start his work with us...

FDTV: Alright, but why did you say you wanted to meet us here, at Sebring?

Shaka: As you may know, Lotus and I were discussing our contract and just decided to extend our partnership until the end of the year.

FDTV: And what were avoiding such agreement before?

Shaka: I wanted to be sure they would provide me a good car. And I wanted to set the record straight with them after such dreadful event last week

FDTV: Why is the Lotus Elise parked on the middle of the track now?

Shaka: Oh, it was part of the deal. I felt I was too hard on my remarks about the car, saying it was as bad as it gets. I know it has its value and the team agreed to give me the car as a gift.

FDTV: That's a great news!

Shaka: Yeah, and I'll show you guys at FDTV how this little beauty should be treated...

As our reporter found himself wondering what he was going to do, Shaka headed to the car, started the engine and... well... this video below speaks for itself.
