Me quedo con los últimos comentarios...

“ The chance of not finishing is so, so big. It is like the Le Mans 24-Hour Race. My worry is that sponsors might think of this like a supermarket product, bought off the shelf, ready and bullet proof. But these are racing prototypes of 30,000 man hours to build and that is unique. It is the total opposite of an aeroplane for example on which each part has undergone 15 years of development before it flies. I hope people don’t see it as a normal, everyday thing to finish the race.”
