No bottles of Champagne for the Top 3 pilots in either class! What are we going to do?

I've got a question - when does the Press Conference is planned to begin?
-
I already have my question to the press about the Challenger Pilot in the white flying suit. Did Daniel Ryfa receive a penalty in his run? Is Challenger17 getting any warm hugs?
-
Race Reporter, I'm very good at asking questions in the Press Conference because it's a good way on finding something out.

I think our teams are just so important. When you have a team that's working, you don't even have to talk, you know by the body language what they're thinking. You have to be family out there. When you're comfortable it puts you at ease as a pilot. The team is just so important.
- Mike Goulian, winner Abu Dhabi 2018
The goal is to go out there and put our team in the Final 4 as much as we can, and when it comes to the latter part of the season, we'll be looking to be up there for sure.
After a while you start to doubt yourself. You're always looking for excuses... but you have to look inward and make sure that you're doing everything as a competitor to get there. You have to figure out how to be consistent how to be at the highest level you can. -
