P10 for Robert in first race at A1-Ring

After a wild qualification session this morning, Robert had to put his car on the 16th place on the grid for today's race.
The race however brought a more positive outcome: Robert finished 10th after having benefited from a good start of his own and a bad one of his competitors. Robert: "It's a real shame... Tomorrow I was constantly in the top 10 but because of a red flag situation I was not able to defend my position in qualifying. Luckily I was able to have a good 'get away', and though I pushed the entire race , I was not able to climb up to the points range. Today's race did offer clean racing and good fun, but I sincerely hope that I can go home tomorrow afternoon with at least some championship points!"
