Formula Duude Official website caught up with the drivers just before lunch, for a quick chat.
Below is the transcript :
PRESS CONFERENCE - Zolder
Driver tib :
(Ligier Linden - Monaco Express) tib, you won half the races this season already, a better performance than last season. Do you believe you can become the new FormulaDuude champion?
tib : I have to believe.. because if i don't, wth will, right ? but yeah, i think i've grown as a driver, and while there is a chance, i will shoot for the victory.
(Alec Trevellian - Mi6 Daily) Do you copy your rival setups?
tib : No, i don't have access to other people setups, so i have to create my own from scratch. Also, i drive in a very unsual way, and other people's setup would probably make me slower, a lot.
(Satoro Matsumoto - Minarae) If Lotus offers you a job, would you partner Shaka at there or would you want a veto clause?
tib : I don't have a problem with anyone, and i think i can be competitive who ever my team mate is. But such offer wasn't made, and i am pretty happy at Libra, no intention to leave, for now.
(Eek - The Cat) One last question: Taelermain is good for Maseratti or do you prefer Ceratti with little dick?
tib : Tell taelermain to go zolder herself.
Driver Shaka :
(Madonna McLaren - SMGP Post) - Shaka, how to you like Zolder, a historic track, home of many F1 GPs in the past ?
Shaka : Sorry, I was remembering some moments like those. Zolder, for me, is a sad circuit. I cant' race there without remembering we lost a great hero there, who for sure is racing wheel to wheel with our MASSSTER on Driver's Heaven now. Zolder will be a special race and I hope I can deliver a perfomance that is up to their standard as a homage.
(Eric Lapton - Obvious Times) - You're talking about the great Gilles, of course. But what about the race tonight ? How is the car, and what are your expectations ?
Shaka : The car looks great. On the visual side, specially, Lotus decided to paint a new scheme that will be unveiled later today and I can't tell you about now, but the visual will be great. Performance-wise the MC12 is probably the fastest car we will have this year and should produce an exciting race tonight!
(Gen. Eric - Military Racing News) - What about the rumors that Lotus is looking for a new driver ? Are they true ? They haven't made a statement, since you smashed their car at Sebring.
Shaka : They don't have to worry about that. We reached an agreement and that was part of the deal, at least the car was. I do what I want with my stuff...
I guess they were not too happy with that, but at least I saw a few smiles on paddock from my team, they realise the car was really bad and they took my point. A few doughnuts and a rear tyre exploded, the engine blew and it didn't survive a slow crash. A serious car would've done better...
(Yuriov Zangiefov - Moscowov Newsov) - Whatov do you thinkov aboutov a russianov teamov enteringov the f-duudov championshipov ?
Shaka : I was invited to see a private test. Their car was not as fast as ours and didn't last a minute before coming to a halt or crashing due to some mechanical failure. They are trying to get aboard, having a third team competing would be good, but they lack speed and reliability as of now. They are dangerous, too dangerous...
(Yuriov Zangiefov - Moscowov Newsov) - that's rightov, we areov dangerousov, shakaman!
Shaka : time to go lunch!
Thanks for you time, drivers.
